LOOK: Someone compiles alleged “disinformation” related to 30th Southeast Asian Games

A blogger made an effort to compile the alleged “fake news” published on social media to destroy the reputation of the 30th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games held in the Philippines.

On Thursday, Franco Mabanta posted 75 photos on his Facebook page showing the compilation of negative news related to SEA games that already debunked or having a questionable source.

Mabanta said that the compilation will convince the people that the negative news released related to SEA Games is “the single most dishonest and well-coordinated online smear campaign in Philippine history”.

He even explained why some people are trying to ruin the reputation of the SEA Games, saying that someone might want to remove House Speaker Alan Peter Cayetano from his current position, or someone is doing some efforts to lessen the popularity of President Rodrigo Duterte.

Here’s some of the photos posted by Mabanta:
