Noong nakaraang Mayo, nagpost ang YouTube Channel na Filipino Future sa community tab ng kanilang channel ng isang gawa-gawang fact check kung saan sinabi nila na pinasunog daw ni dating pangulong Cory Aquino ang mga history books na nilimbag noong panahon ng diktaduryang Marcos ngunit wala silang pinakita ni isang ebidensya.
Dagdag pa nila sa kanilang sabi-sabi, ninakaw daw ni Aquino ang pagkapangulo kahit sa kabila nito ay may mga ebidensiya na ang kampo ni dating diktador Ferdinand Marcos Sr ang tahasang nandaya noon. Nikko Balbedina (with reports from Mariel Natanawan)
