Getting crazier and crazier

Rattled by allegations of her ties to communist terrorists, Vice President Leni Robredo on Saturday sought help from her social media followers to fight off fake news posts linking her to the Communist Party of the Philippines/New Peoples Army/National Democratic Front (CPP/NPA/NDF) communist triumvirate.

“It gets crazier and crazier. Now I am being red-tagged,” Robredo said in a post on Facebook on Saturday.

“None of the allegations here are true. Please help us report these peddlers of fake news,” she said.

Robredo said that the fake news items were posted simultaneously, and the coordinated effort was likely the “script this week.”

 Robredo, head of the political opposition Liberal Party and one of the the most vocal critics of President Rodrigo Duterte, did not say if the black propaganda is the handiwork of the dirty tricks department of the administration.
