Focap said the BBC journalist had asked Facebook to investigate the threat against him.
At the same time, Focap raised the issue of how difficult it had been to get access to Marcos Jr. and even his camp during the campaign period, particularly in getting reactions to issues and controversies hounding him.
“All these restrictive actions undermine a critical and free press in an Asian bulwark of democracy and have sparked fears of how independent media would be treated under another possible Marcos presidency,” Focap emphasized.
