Secretary Judy Taguiwalo of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) accused one of the country's leading news media organization, ABS-CBN of taking advantage of her presence at a forum to corner her on what she can say about the extra-judicial killing (EJK) and made it appear that she's one of Pres. Duterte's adversary.
The DSWD Secretary took to Facebook and shared to her followers how her statement was allegedly twisted by ABS-CBN. She was angered by ABS-CBN News' article about her statement during the October 6 Women's Forum where she was invited as guest speaker.
The ABS-CBN article had the title, "Duterte Ally, Women's Group's Call for End to Drug-Relates Slays," quoted the DSWD Secretary on her statement against the EJK.
According to ABS-CBN, Sec. Taguiwalo was quoted as saying "We do not tolerate extrajudicial killings and we are all for due process, and we must strengthen our voice when it comes to promoting humane and compassionate means to end or mitigate the drug problem,” she said.
Sec. Taguiwalo cried foul over how her statement was allegedly framed by ABS-CBN and noted that "This is how you are used by people you trust for a prop action against the President when you were just invited to talk about social protection programs and DSWD's role in the rehabilitation of drug victims," she said.
The DSWD Secretary added further that "I am so disappointed!! Never Again!!" Taguiwalo added.
The article which was allegedly twisted by ABS-CBN News was written by Ron Gagalac who was identified as some Duterte supporters as one of the bias reporters working at ABS-CBN due to his previous twisted reports on Pres. Duterte.
