The complaint is filed February 13, 2020, 4 months before a Manila court convicted Ressa and former researcher-writer Reynaldo Santos Jr over the same issue.

"The main distinction is that in the 2014 Rappler article, I was linked to drug smuggling, which was not alleged in the 2002 Philippine Star article," said Keng.

The May 2012 article of Santos could not have been prosecuted under the cybercrime law because it was passed only in September 2012. "It is of public record: My counsel had pleaded and begged with Rappler to correct their false public accusations that I am a criminal, or at the very least, to publish my side," said Keng.

Umaapaw yung pabor ni keng Kay pduts Kaya tuloy ang sampa ng kaso pa more.

Journalists must verify everything they report. People base their perceptions and opinions on subjects according to what the news offer. If reporters and broadcasters couldn't do such a thing, then maybe their field of choice is not really for them. Just being honest. 🤷‍♂

I believe justice has been served. Ressa is a journalist for crying out loud! She should be getting her facts straight! Totally fake news!! wilfredokeng rappler AThousandCuts mariaressa justiceforcjcorona

Defend press freedom? Seriously people? I know we’re all fighting for our rights to democracy given the situation of the Philippine government, but that is not the issue here. Ressa did not do her job well. Good journalism requires fairness.

Just quit it already mamsh! Makukulong kanaaaa just end it already. AThousandCuts mariaressa wilfredokeng

Sumuko kana ressa! Makukulong kana masyado ng marami ang ebidensya laban sayo! AThousandCuts justiceforcjcorona mariaressa wilfredokeng

Finally some jail time! The article against the businessman was published in 2012. Rappler had already been warned that time kasi they delivered wrong and unverified information. But still they re-published it in 2014. 🙄 !

You deserves it. You do not go around spreading fake news about innocent people and expect to be free all your life. If we Filipinos really want justice, then we shouldn’t be selective. AThousandCuts MariaRessa wilfredokeng justiceforcjcorona rappler
