This is rough draft so far. I need to pass it by 5 other people on The List to have them add in their information, as so far this is only mine, and those that I know where and how to get my hands on. But this is so when people keep asking, I can seriously just hand them one link and not spend the next half day tracking it down.
This is to document recent fan treatment/abuse by newly minted Hawaii Five-0 actress, Michelle Borth, of CBS Company.
February 23rd/24th, 2013
The First Altercation (Erin)
Wherein Michelle Borth Insults a Fan, Blames her dog & Claims McDanno for her coverQuote from Janet: "It was after the attack on @erni_c that the first wave of blockings occurred. Anyone who was quietly talking in their timelines about unfollowing Ms. Borth due to her behavior, anyone who offered support to @erni_c, anyone who posted an objection to the behavior in the H50 tag, was tracked down and blocked. No one I knew who’d been blocked had ever tweeted their dismay to Ms. Borth directly. And when Justin Fischer also blocked everyone Ms. Borth blocked, it was clear the block function was being used as punishment, not to prevent unwanted contact as it’s designed for. God only knows what Ms. Borth said about those twitter users to get Mr. Fischer to block them.
There’s no way to know how large Ms. Borth’s block list was at the beginning and how much it grew by the end. But I do know dozens upon dozens of twitter users were affected.
