- Balancio reported that Malacañang remains open in assigning Uson to lead the information campaign for federalism.
Presidential Communications Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson took to Twitter to express her dismay at DZMM reporter Joyce Balancio. According to a report by Balancio, Malacañang is still open to the idea of making Uson take charge in the information campaign for federalism.
Balancio caught Uson’s ire when she mentioned about the latter’s previous faux pas of posting a photo of the Honduran police as accompanying image to a note about the Marawi siege.
Mocha slams reporter
In the said Twitter post, Mocha said that the reporter should have done more research before reporting on anything.
“Mawalang galang na po kung sino ka mang reporter para lang sa kaalaman mo wala po akong sinabi na yung mga Honduras police ay mga taga Marawi. Research muna bago balita. Kayo nagbabalita ng fake news ngayon.”
Netizens are enraged
Defending Balancio, netizens fired back at Uson.
“Eh totoo naman ang sinabi ng reporter… Ginamit mo ang picture ng Honduran police na anyang nasa Marawi City… Wala siyang sinabi na taga Marawi ang picture ng Honduran police na you posted… Ikaw tinitwist mo naman ang balita…”
“Malamang ang problema kay Uson mahina ang pang-unawa. Her comprehension skills must be lower than that of a primary student. Kaya sya ang itinalaga dyan sa Federalism info dissemination para kahit kabobohan ang ipamahagi hindi sya masisi kasi… WOULD YOU BLAME AN IDIOT?”
“so sige ipaliwanag mo , bakit mo pinost yun ? Bakit sa dinami dami eh yung mga nasa Honduras ang napili mo ? Huwag kami Mocha, di kami tanga .”
“Mawalang galang narin syo at mahirap galangin ang mga KINAKALAT mo.DONT TWIST THE REPORT!Malinaw na sinabi Ng reporter na ginamit mo ang mga litrato ng mga HONDURAN police bilang mga sundalo Na animoy asa MARAWI CITY.EITHER MAHINA TLGA UTAK MO OR SADYANG MAPAGAWA KA LNG NG STORYA”
