Former Ambassador and veteran journalist, Rigoberto "Bobi" Tiglao released another controversial expose on his column with The Manila Times exposing Rappler's Maria Ressa as a colossal Con Man.
According to Bobi Tiglao, only a week ago, the New York Times prominently run a front-page article titled "A Journalist Trolled by Her Own Government," with its lead paragraph being: "Harassing journalists is one of Rodrigo Duterte's specialties."
The veteran journalist informed his readers that the popular NYT has 5 million print and digital subscribers in the US and in the world and they will surely not bother to investigate if the article about the Philippines, or if the article's preposterous claims on this unimportant country are accurate.
Maria Ressa's claim that she is "trolled by her government" has been totally disproven with a recent unprecedented development: over 40,000 (Filipinos here and in the US have signed a petition through the unassailable change.org asking the Justice Department to revoke her Filipino citizenship." She can no longer claim that these 40,000 are Duterte trolls.
Based upon the expose of Rigoberto Tiglao, Rappler CEO and editor-in-chief Maria Aycardo Ressa has successfully fooled Western media that she is a Filipino journalist with little means who is fighting her country's authoritarian President bent on suppressing media dissent.
The reality according to Tiglao is Maria Ressa is indeed a well-off American citizen, who acquired Filipino citizenship in 2004 to make it legally easier for her to work as a manager at ABS-CBN Broadcasting, a media company where foreigners are banned by the Constitution from participating.
The Rappler website she claims to be leading the fight against a strongman President was set up in 2011, initially as a weapon for President Aquino’s assault against the Supreme Court by removing Chief Justice Renato Corona.
