Cristina Chi on fake news, foreign influence, and the Mindanao secession narrative


Listen Later

PhilStar.com reporter Cristina Chi joins Regine Cabato to unpack how foreign disinformation networks are exploiting real frustrations in the Philippines—turning them into viral calls for Mindanao secession and anti-Marcos narratives.


Cristina reveals how Chinese-aligned social media accounts and bot networks helped spread false claims about Mindanao independence, and even tried to redirect blame toward Vietnam in the West Philippine Sea dispute. Together, they discuss how influence operations, AI-generated content, and coordinated online attacks are reshaping public opinion—and what it means for public trust and information integrity.
