The Photo I linked is a statement from Mark Zuckerberg himself. Recently there had been people who prefers using Facebook as their source of news instead of Legit news sites. Back in the Philippines I remember the fans of kept on believing the Hoaxes of Mocha Uson. Some blogger who is an obsessed Duterte fan. She posted an article that NASA declared Duterte as the best president of the Galaxy and all Duterte fans believed it and celebrated it. Facebook had been recently turned into a propaganda fake news site and people disturbingly believed these "news"

@SIMPLYD yeah she is a politician's daughter. She is now accusing all TV networks to be anti-duterte and declared her blogs as the truth.

She always act like Duterte is the best President in the universe and she kept on claiming all criticism against him is false. She is the one who made campaigns to Cyber Bully Agot Isidro just because she criticized her God. I don't hate Duterte but the Godlike worship of Mocha is really irritating.

Even Media news are full of fake news while facebook is social media which is still a good source unless people believe in hoax without knowing the reality. Duterte fans should have checked NASA'a website / twitter or an any account available for confirmation.

If the news about Duterte is positive, they will automatically see it as truth.

@CaptAlbertWhisker Your Highness, there is always difference between News and Hoax. A news can be good or bad, real or fake. A hoax can be good or bad, but not real

When you questioned those fake news pages, They always have those rabied fans who will defend them. I find it disturbing many Filipinos believes Mocha over those news reporters who risks their lives to tell the truth.
