Angel Locsin posted an Instagram story chiding the statement of Presidential Communications Operations Office Assistant Secretary Kris Ablan for stating that they don’t have trolls.
Ablan stated that their department does not have a specific unit assigned for online trolling in light of issues with Undersecretary Lorraine Badoy.
He noted that the unit that they do have is only for content creation.
“Wala po kaming trolls. Ang meron pong unit namin ‘yung social media unit na gumagawa ng content. Wala pong nagmo-monitor, content po ang ginagawa,” said Ablan.
In her story, Angel urged the public to not feed the online trolls.
Angel has been a victim of online trolling, especially via Twitter. Here are some examples of how trolls attack Angel on social media.
Know what, Angel? No matter how many charity works you've done over the years after you left GMA; thinking it would compensate for your "guilt", the past will still creep up on you when you least expect it and remind people how TRAITOROUS you really are. https://t.co/MSVdMDcQyS
