Malaybalay City, Bukidnon – The Philippine Information Agency kon PIA Region 10 is now being more inconvenienced because of the spread of fake news regarding the war now ongoing in Marawi.
In an interview by RMN Malaybalay with PIA 10 Regional Director Frank Gumapon, he said that even before the violence in Marawi broke out, fake news is already very rampant.
As per Gumapon, it is really a need for the public to verify with the police, army and other concerned agencies if ever they have stumbled upon a news which they think is fake.
He also stated that spreading of fake news can also create unnecessary panic and chaos wherein people do this just for fun or to take advantage of the situation.
The regional director stated that spreading of fake news will not do us and the economy any good which is mostly can be seen in social media sites such as Facebook while others are spread through text blasts.
