PT accused of spreading fake news about opponents in Brazil
Original: O PT continua fazendo o seu jogo sujo. Diz ser vítima das fake news, mas usa essa “arma” para atacar o adversário. Desta
Critics in Brazil are accusing the Workers' Party (PT) of hypocrisy, arguing the party presents itself as a victim of disinformation while using fake news to attack its rivals. The claim is that PT's own presidential candidate shared a falsehood, a move detractors call irresponsible and shameful. Supporters of the hashtag #PTNão are amplifying the accusation as the presidential race intensifies.
Why now: Brazil's polarised presidential campaign is driving accusations of disinformation between rival camps.
