5. Du30newsinfo

Du30newsinfo contains articles from fake articles and satirical news and passes these off as real news. While it spreads some real news about Duterte, it is quite proficient in publishing fake news against Duterte’s critics. If you find articles from this page, triple check them first before believing them.

Some of its fake articles and articles obtained from satire sites that we busted include US President Barack Obama calling de Lima abnormal, Duterte appointing the late Miriam Santiago as new Supreme Court Chief Justice, Senator Tito Sotto filing charges against de Lima, Putin calling Ramos blind, and more.

Du30newsinfo is linked to Facebook page “Duterte Para sa Pagbabago.”

6. Okd2

One of Okd2’s viral fake articles was its claim about Disney investing $350 million for Disneyland Philippines. Buzzpinas busted it and even posted Okd2’s “About” page, which first cited that it is an entertainment website meant to test the netizens’ gullibility.

However, its “About” page has changed, but it still did not give much of an assurance as to the site’s credibility. It said that 80% of its content is contributed by people who want to share their opinions. There is even a disclaimer that in “very rare cases,” Okd2 may post some fiction for their audience’s entertainment. If you’re not diligent enough in verifying Okd2’s articles, you won’t be 100% sure which articles are real and which are fiction.

Some of Okd2’s fake articles that we busted are about Teddy Casiño being barred from entering the Lung Center of the Philippines and the late Miriam Santiago telling Duterte not to trust Robredo.
