Stars and influencers amplify, either knowingly or indirectly, questionable websites and posts containing government propaganda and false information in exchange for money
Celebrities’ endorsement of questionable content – done via sharing on their verified and official Facebook pages – is sinister, as it lends credibility and legitimacy to websites and pages that are out to pollute the online environment and spread disinformation. Such practice also lacks transparency, as posts appear as if they were organic or unpaid for.
Oftentimes, too, Twinmark-linked pages suddenly shift their identities and content – say, from entertainment to politics – usually to promote a politician or push out propaganda during an election season. A former Twinmark employee told Rappler they had several local and national politicians as clients.
TNP was regularly given a boost by Uson, as well as several celebrity, fan, and pro-Duterte pages. The content of TNP and other Twinmark websites was shared on partner pages with the same caption and at almost the same time. “Thank you for alerting us. We are not aware of it. A lot of fan pages were set up. Paulo is aware of that but he is not aware of every single one they’ve made and that they used it for those purposes,” Henson told Rappler in a phone call.
The same internal documents obtained by Rappler showed that such amount was usually reserved for verified pages of popular influencers and celebrities. The internal files also showed that many of these payments were sent either straight to the bank accounts of the talents or to their managers. Internal documents showed that the actress was paid a total of at least P405,000 for half a year in 2017. A quick search on her official verified page also showed that she had been sharing Twinmark-linked websites as early as October 2016.
Elizabeth “Betchay” Vidanes, founder of VCM, confirmed to Rappler that they indeed had an engagement with Fernando Hicban, one of the brother-owners of Twinmark, in September 2016 “for social media marketing purposes to promote health-related, positive-vibe articles.”“When we reviewed the website of Mr.
Such lazy so-called investigative reporting! Paulo Avelino's fans, which include me, know that he doesn't have a facebook page, that the big one there is run by a fan club. Also, his fans know instantly that those posts you showed are not by him because of the 'po' in them. 😏
YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK for the love of money

ang legit sa mga binanggit si FAKE NEWS peddler. kilala niyo na siya.
I guess it's hard to turn down easy money. I wonder why most of these were back in 2017-2018 pa? Wala ba silang bagong influencers now? Who owns and funds these companies? I hope it's not our taxes. How many of these companies are out there?
nakakadepress yung amount ng perang kinikita nila samantalang ang hirap hirap kumit ngayon putangina talaga
WE GAVE THEM POWER AND WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE THAT POWER BACK AQAY FROM THEM!!!

Kudos Rappler! Isa lang ang Twinmark Media Enterprises sa propaganda machines for sure. So, extra careful in swallowing what influencers are peddling. They get the money, we get manipulated. How nice
Sketch ang bf, sketch ang barkada ng kapatid. Followers beware! Hay

Imagine my shock that celebrities pimp themselves out!
Sige gawa pa more ng chismis. Knowing Rappler, spreader of fake news headed by no other than a criminal.
Beating you at your own game is never comfortable.
PR for rent/sale
Sana 'FB pages' ng mga artista ang nilagay sa headline. Some are attacking them na personally. Parang unfair to those na wala naman kaalam-alam sa mga pino-post. And nakalagay naman na yung money sa account ng Manager pumapasok. Especially Jasmine na vocal naman against the Govt.
Paulo Avelino, DJ Chacha, Mocha, Momoy palaboy, Sam Pinto, Yexel, Jamich and Senyora Sentibanez wow millions ang kinita.
kakahiya naman from NED and Omidyar funded Rappler? kanino tayo pabibo ngayon for the funding Ressa? 🤡
