"The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me...to console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness...that He may be glorified.” (Isaiah 61:1,3)

COORDINATED POSTS OF FORGED DOCUMENT SEEKS TO DISCREDIT INVESTIGATIVE NEWSROOMS Several accounts, many of them with a reputation for disseminating disinformation, are posting a supposed memo from the National Endowment for Democracy. The supposed document insinuates that NED is coordinating the reports of Rappler, Vera Files, and the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism on flood control corruption. It also purportedly aligns and supports the mass protests organized by Akbayan, Bayan, Karapatan, and Kabataan. The memo is fabricated. While “NED provides grants to independent organizations that pursue their own initiatives to advance transparency, civic participation, and government accountability,” it “does not direct or coordinate their activities, and it does not support or engage in any violent or unlawful actions whatsoever,” the organization said in a statement. ned.org/ned-statement-… The circulation of the forged document is an obvious attempt at tainting anti-corruption work at a time when serious betrayals of public trust are being revealed to the public. As in the time of then-president Rodrigo Duterte, propaganda networks are on overdrive in harassing investigative journalists, fact checkers, and activists. As in those years, their intention now is clear: to enable corruption and abuse in government by discrediting those who expose them. Here’s everything you need to know about the ongoing flood control investigations: rappler.com/flood-control
