"Lee Min Ho admits being bisexual" is hoax

Korean Superstar Lee Min Ho is trending on social media websites. An article originating from abs-cbnnews.com with headline that reads "Lee min Ho admits being bisexual" is being shared numerous times.

But when the news portal of ABS-CBN was searched using the search term "site:abs-cbnnews.com Lee Min Ho admits being bisexual", only 3 search results was shown which mean no article with such title or story was ever written on ABS-CBN News.


This incident was comparable when Kris Aquino made headline last week on ABS-CBN rival website gmanetwork.com about an STD virus coming from which causes stink on NAIA Terminal 1

The website issued a disclaimer about the story and to quote,
Clicking on the link would redirect the user to the actual GMA News Online story Overflowing septic tank causes a stink at NAIA-1 that was posted on July 19 at 1:28 p.m.

For the record, GMA News Online has never posted a story with the headline on the STD virus. Neither was the website hacked.

Abuse on sharing of news articles on social media website Facebook.com will continue as long as the website giant does not impose changes on how their users share article.
