An old election campaign video of Vice President and presidential aspirant Leni Robredo was altered with the use of unrelated images to present misleading information about her.

‘Atom Araullo is a Kakampink’ says one caption. ‘Atom Araullo for Leni’ says another.

Robredo’s spokesperson Barry Gutierrez cited a “conflict of schedule” as the reason for the vice president’s non-attendance.

Carlos did not allude to the vice president in her remark.

More than 65.74 million Filipinos are expected to cast their votes on May 9 in the country’s first-ever national elections during a pandemic.

The remark has been wrongly connected to the priest as early as December and recently revived on FB from Feb. 17 to Mar. 2.

All of the seven mainstream media groups called out in the post reported on his participation.

This post is fake. Don't believe it.

This is not true. Robredo’s spokesperson said the allegation is a “complete fabrication.”

While there is, indeed, no specific law on rebellion, the criminal act has been defined and made punishable under the Revised Penal Code, as amended by Republic Act 6968 in 1990.

The interaction between the two actresses never happened.

The tweet is counterfeit.

The article was about state auditors questioning their colleagues at the COA—not the OVP.

While the Makabayan coalition has endorsed Robredo’s candidacy for president, it was not in exchange for including Colmenares in her lineup for the Senate.

The WPS issue, including the harassment that Filipino fishermen suffer, was raised in past national elections.

The clip does show a Bongbong-Sara motorcade, but it was neither recent nor taken at EDSA.

The DOJ cleared Robredo of the charges in February 2020 for lack of probable cause.

There is no truth to the claim that such a statement was put up at any Oxford building.

Contrary to Magno’s claim, Soho did not interview Marcos Jr. in 2016 when he was then running for vice president, according to GMA-7.

Meta, Facebook's parent company, denied the claim.

The post gave deflated numbers on the distributed materials.

This post is false. Don't believe it.

Amid the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, misinformation that voters need to present a vaccination card or a negative RT-PCR test to be able to vote on May 9 has been making the rounds on social media.

A graphic featuring Vice President and presidential candidate Leni Robredo’s partial answer to a question in a radio interview was uploaded by several Facebook (FB) accounts, including an FB page of a former Palace media consultant, to make her look dumb. It is misleading.
