MANILA, Philippines — The Office of the Vice President slammed rumors of an alleged *** video involving one of the daughters of Vice President and presidential candidate Leni Robredo, saying it was mulling legal action over the circulating screenshots.

This comes after screenshots of Google search result links to the supposedly leaked *** video began circulating around social media, primarily among account supporting the campaign of Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the son and namesake of the late ousted dictator who is also running for president.
"This is a malicious fabrication and we have reported it to the platforms concerned to have it taken down. Our lawyers are studying our options for legal action," Robredo's spokesperson, lawyer Barry Guttierez, said in a statement sent to media Monday afternoon.

"The deeper goal of this tactic is for us to be overwhelmed with frustration and lose our cool on social media. For us to quarrel with people so that we are not able to convert."

In response to the claims, Robredo also wrote on Twitter: "[The] best antidote to fake news is the truth. Let us not lose focus. Let us continue doing good. This is how I survived the last six years."

The vice president, the de facto leader of the opposition, has long been the target of disinformation by pro-administration accounts on social media since she was elected to her current post in 2016 when she defeated Marcos.

In past months, Robredo has been on the receiving end of fake news created by accounts supporting Marcos' campaign.

This is also not the first time the Vice President's daughters were targeted by fake news.

Earlier in January, pro-administration bloggers and influencers made up the claim that one of Robredo's daughters allegedly jumped quarantine and went home directly after arriving in Manila from New York City.

"It takes a special kind of evil to resort to misogynistic attacks against the kids. Is this the kind of politics we want for our children?" human rights lawyer and senatorial candidate Chel Diokno also said in a tweet earlier that day.

"We call on Google to remove these links immediately and to pro-actively prevent any more links containing the same abhorrent misogynostic attacks to be published. Google should not allow itself to be used for crimes against women."
