Claim: Rappler is the most distrusted PH news Org
Category: False
Complete Details: A Facebook post of user We are One Pilipinas shared a picture of a Bilyonaryo screenshot claiming "Not once, not twice, but thrice! Maria Ressa's Rappler cements title as most distrusted PH news org- Reuters study".
Why we fact check this: This post actually just takes a part of the Reuters study to bolster their claim that Rappler is the most distrusted Philippine news organization, when in fact, if taken as a whole, the study does not actually mention that to be a fact.
