In the wake of discussions and the eventual enactment this year of Republic Act No. 11479 or the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA), Filipinos saw a wave of personalities being painted in one color: Red.
Several netizens on Facebook (FB) resurfaced a fabricated quote card depicting Vice President Leni Robredo as a communist and rebel sympathizer.
Sa kanyang pahayag sa publiko noong Nob. 30, sinabi ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na wala siyang ginagawang “red-tagging" ng mga maka-kaliwang grupo na Makabayan, Gabriela, at Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (BAYAN) nang akusahan niya ang mga ito bilang mga “legal front" at "mga miyembro" ng Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP), ng New People's Army (NPA), ang armadong pangkat nito, at ng National Democratic Front (NDF), ang pampulitikang grupo nito.
In his Nov. 30 public address, President Rodrigo Duterte said he was not “red-tagging” the left-wing groups Makabayan, Gabriela, and Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (BAYAN) when he accused them of being “legal fronts” and “members” of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP), of the New People’s Army (NPA), its military arm, and of the National Democratic Front (NDF), its political arm.
One publisher falsely claimed “even the best Photoshop editor” would not have been able to manipulate it.
The actress has denied the allegation, and a senior government official has told the public not to brand Locsin a terrorist. The photos also provide no proof that she has joined any rebel organization.
ARMY Lt. Gen. Antonio Parlade Jr. has been taking a beating from various sectors lately as a consequence of his remarks against beautiful ladies who showed courage by speaking out on women’s issues such as injustice.
No news reports support either of its claims.
Dalawang Facebook (FB) page ang nag red-tag kay Rowena "Weng" Paraan, pinuno ng ABS-CBN’s citizen journalism arm Bayan Mo, Ipatrol Mo, sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng pitong-taong litrato ng kanyang safety training para sa mga kapwa mamamahayag sa Mindanao at sinasabing nagpapakita ito ng mga sugatang rebelde sa bundok.
Two Facebook (FB) pages red-tagged Rowena “Weng” Paraan, head of ABS-CBN’s citizen journalism arm Bayan Mo, Ipatrol Mo, by using a seven-year-old photo of her conducting a safety training for fellow journalists in Mindanao and falsely claiming it showed wounded communist rebels in the mountains.
