This phenomenon has resulted in the internet becoming an independent socio-political system with its modes of interaction, procedures, and standards for political campaigns. Furthermore, the functional theory of political campaign discourse provides a set of content and theoretical functions of these messages to describe how candidates would differentiate themselves from one another in the course of campaigning. Applied in the personality-based Philippine political setting, this study argues that dynamic access to social media, from the ends of voters and candidates, in campaigning has led to a political environment conducive to populism. As this study analyzed 548 Facebook posts of the five presidential candidates from April 9 to May 9, 2016, for the Philippine elections, it found that posts are dominated by sharing of personal activities and attacks on Duterte’s unorthodox political rhetoric. Attacks have a high propensity to go viral on social media and this virality, for any political candidate, means gaining popularity among social media users. Hence, the findings are consistent with studies claiming that virality is the most concise and effective strategy developed in an online campaign. Thus, this study found that dynamic access to social media led to a political environment conducive for populist rhetoric that helped validate experts’ explanations of Duterte’s victory as a product of the underdog effect.","PeriodicalId":253631,"journal":{"name":"Dancing Across Borders","volume":"238 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121305012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
