MANILA, Philippines — The Office of the Solicitor General is asking the Supreme Court to void the Memorandum of Agreement between the Commission on Elections and online news site Rappler for the 2022 national polls.

"It is the OSG’s position that the nation’s future is at risk for the Comelec erroneously chose to partner with a foreign-controlled media company whose license was duly revoked in 2018 and dangerously allowed this pseudo media company to proactively influence the 2022 election," it said.
