00:06Radio and SMNI Integrated News, owned by embattled Doomsday preacher Apollo Kibuloy's Sunshine
00:11Media Network International.
00:13SMNI announced in an article on its website and social media posts that Meta suspended
00:18these accounts for expressing hatred or contempt for a group of people and using harmful racial
00:22stereotypes.
00:23SMNI has a track record of fueling disinformation and red-tagging journalists and activists
00:28critical of former President Rodrigo Duterte and Kibuloy.
00:32The suspension comes after Duterte's arrest by the Interpol on behalf of the International
00:36Criminal Court.
00:37Senator Bato de la Rosa criticized Meta's suspension of SMNI News' accounts, suggesting
00:42followers follow other pages.
