Veteran columnist Cristy Fermin was not happy with the posts made by her parody account on X, formerly Twitter.
It can be recalled that the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) released an official statement to debunk the information published by Cristy’s parody account named ‘Amina Cristi Fermin.’
The said Twitter page posted a satire article about MTRCB’s decision to summon Vice Ganda again due to a commercial he made with a popular fast food chain.
In her online show, Cristy denied that she was the one who owned the said account, which was now deactivated.
“Hindi ko po sukat akalain, ako po pala’y sangkot dito sa kuwentong ito. Noon ko pa po sinasabi mga kapatid, mga kababayan, wala po akong kahit anong social media account… ‘Yun pong mga naglipana na FB account… iba-ibang pangalan… hindi po akin ‘yun, mga posers lang po,” said Cristy.
According to her, she would protect the integrity she built for decades as a columnist and showbiz reporter.
“Huwag na po sana tayong gagamit ng taong walang kinalaman para siya naman po ang mapasama. Hindi naman po tama na ako, walang personal na galit kay Vice Ganda… Pero ‘yung palabasin na pag-aawayin pa kami ng MTRCB, parang ang gustong palabasin ng vlogger na ito pagsabungin kami ni Chairwoman Lala Sotto. Unang-una hindi po mangyayari ‘yan. Kung may mga utak po na nasa tamang wisyo ang pamunuan ng MTRCB,” said Cristy.
“Hinding-hindi ko po matatanggap na gamitin ang aking pinaghirapang kredibilidad at pangalan sa isang fake news na katulad nito. Fake na pangalan, fake news ang pinalalakad at ipinamimigay sa taumbayan. Hinding-hindi ko po ‘yan papayagan,” she added.
