MAINSTREAM media is painting Vice President Maria Leonor Robredo as the most abused candidate, and that the level of disinformation being peddled against her is so disproportionate when compared to other candidates, particularly former senator Ferdinand Marcos Jr.

In a Senate hearing earlier this year, Professor Yvonne Chua of the University of the Philippines testified that a study conducted by Tsek.Ph, an academe-based fact checking initiative, found that for the month of January Robredo was the biggest disinformation victim, while Marcos Jr. was the biggest disinformation beneficiary.
