Reuters report only confirms existence of an oust-Duterte conspiracy

LIKE the New York Times and other media organizations before it, the usually reliable Reuters international news agency appears to have been hooked by the propaganda line of the political opposition which seeks to bring down the government of President Rodrigo Duterte by discrediting its ongoing war on illegal drugs.

It levels charges that have already been made in sensational fashion by others. It has no new story to tell, let alone an authentic one. Although Reuters bills its piece as a special report; it is, in fact, a report on a report by someone anonymous.
