NBI meets with vloggers over fake news concerns

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) met with lawyers representing approximately 40 vloggers and content creators regarding the spread of fake news.

NBI Director Jaime Santiago stated the meeting was a dialogue to educate creators on legal boundaries, not to file charges, respecting freedom of expression.

Santiago noted some creators may unknowingly exceed legal parameters with their content.

The NBI also subpoenaed a journalist in relation to an article about the alleged "Oplan Horus," which the Lakas-CMD party deemed a hoax.

Former press secretary Atty. Trixie Cruz-Angeles attended the dialogue, representing a vlogger and receiving a subpoena herself.
