  • A Facebook post has shared a photo it claims shows a rally held by Hugpong ng Pagbabago, a political party led by Sara Duterte, daughter of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. The claim is false; the photo is a Getty Images photo of a 2018 rally for gun reform in Washington D.C. The misleading post , which has been shared hundreds of times on Facebook since it was published on March 11, 2019, contains a photo of a street filled with people, many of whom are carrying placards. Below is a screenshot of the post: A screenshot of the misleading Facebook post The post’s caption says: Hugpong ng Pagbabago rally. Thanks for being one with us. Hugpong ng Pagbabago, which means Alliance for Change in Tagalog, is a regional political party. It is chaired by Sara Duterte , daughter of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and mayor of the southern city of Davao. The party has announced it is endorsing a handful of mainly pro-administration candidates in the Philippines’ midterm elections in May. AFP conducted a reverse image search and found the photo used in the misleading post was actually taken by international photo agency Getty Images . Below is a screenshot of the Getty photo: A screenshot of the original photo on the Getty Images website The caption says the image was taken on March 24, 2018 and shows protesters at a March for Our Lives rally in Washington, D.C. March for Our Lives rallies were held across the US on March 24, 2018, calling for gun law reforms following a mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in February 2018. Here is an AFP report on the shooting. Here is an AFP report on a March for Our Lives rally in Parkland, Florida on March 24, 2018. Here is the location of the Getty Images photo on Google Street View: Below is the Getty photo (left) alongside the photo used in the misleading Facebook post (right). The original and misleading images both have the same key details: a building in the left background with several columns, a boxy glass building to the right and rows of distinctive street lights with round lamps. Using Invid , an image and video verification tool, AFP magnified an element that can be seen in both the original and the misleadingly used image: a placard bearing the letters NRA. AFP has circled the two placards in the crowd that are identical in both images: The NRA placard circled on the Getty photograph (left) and the same placard circled on the misleading Facebook post (right) (en)
