There was a podcast that came out that said some things that angered some fans. They became angry. That's fine. But then they started a smear campaign on Twitter saying some pretty vile things, imo. I can understand being angry, but I can't understand being crude to the podcast people and then also sending that info to CW/WB publicists and other officials for the network.
Of course, that ended up creating a retaliation and it just got ugly. It's one thing, again, to show your support for something, but not to attack back.
I recognized some of the names involved and I seriously hope they were fake names or something. Fandom doesn't need to do stuff like this. We have enough hate as it is.
