Complete details
Two YouTube videos falsely claimed that President Rodrigo Duterte got mad at Senator Manny Pacquiao and berated him during a public briefing on Monday, May 10. The videos were uploaded on Tuesday, May 11.
This claim came from YouTube channels “PH BREAKING NEWS” and “DDS NEWSINFO.”
“DDS NEWSINFO” titled its video, “BREAKING NEWS TODAY MAY 11, 2021 PRES DUTERTE NAGALIT SINAGOT SI PACQUIAO AT CARPIO (President Duterte got mad, berated Pacquiao and [Antonio] Carpio.)” The video from “PH BREAKING NEWS” had a similar title.
This is false.
The videos used clips from Duterte’s recorded public briefing on Monday, May 10. Duterte made no mention of Pacquiao during the entire briefing, which lasted for over an hour.
Pacquiao was not mentioned even in the clips used in the YouTube videos. Instead, the clips showed Duterte explaining why he backed out of a debate with retired Supreme Court justice Antonio Carpio. Duterte himself had challenged Carpio to a debate on the West Philippine Sea.
Duterte also talked about the Philippines’ ties with China, saying that “it is never wrong” to tell China that we owe them a “debt of gratitude.”
“It’s the truth. They gave us [vaccines], we accepted it, we used it. But it does not mean that I accepted the vaccines and then said we can just forget our claims over the West Philippine Sea, that it’s already settled because of the vaccines. It is never like that,” Duterte said in a mix of English and Filipino.
As of Wednesday, May 12, a total of five million Sinovac vaccine doses have been delivered to the Philippines. The Philippine government purchased four million doses, while China donated the other one million. (TRACKER: The Philippines’ COVID-19 vaccine distribution)
The two videos containing this false claim had over 151,500 combined views as of writing. Claim Check, Facebook’s monitoring tool that identifies potentially false information shared on the platform, flagged the video from “PH BREAKING NEWS” for fact checkers to verify.
Rappler earlier debunked a similar claim that quoted Duterte as saying that he will punch Pacquiao over the senator’s insistence that the President is not doing enough to assert the Philippines’ territorial rights against China. – Pauline Macaraeg/Rappler.com
