MANILA — Malacañang on Tuesday alleged that "fake news" started targeting the First Family after the fallout between President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte.

“Ever since, natarget na sila ng fake news. Hindi na ito bago. Simula nang hindi naging maayos ang pagtingin ni VP Sara sa pamilya Marcos nagstart na ang fake news,” Palace Press Officer Claire Castro said in a briefing.

Castro clarified that she is not accusing a particular person, but noted a study on the supposed presence of “a network that propagates negative news or information or misinformation against the President and favoring the Vice President.

“I am not accusing anybody but a lot of people are propagating misinformation against the President and the country,” she said.

She said Marcos is already “slightly affected” with the issue of fake news, and has directed the Presidential Communications Office to counter the spread of disinformation.

On Tuesday, the Palace official challenged anew critics of the First Family who claimed that recent pictures that First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos posted online are edited. 

This comes amid claims that the First Lady was detained by American authorities during her recent working visit to the United States.
