Members marceline Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 Ugh. When people start pulling out the free speech excuse you know they're out on a ledge. Twitter has become such a toxic thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 Can someone clue me in to what went on there? I was out of the pocket then. I don't think Kristian is on twitter. Smart move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 I don't remember exactly, but when ABC fired Scott Clifton and Brett Claywell from OLTL in early 2010, Nelson Branco claimed that they were unprofessional and partied all the time instead of concentrating on their jobs. It was a pretty nasty thing to say, and was denied by several cast members. It was even more offputting because he'd praised the "Kish" story for ages until the actors were fired, and suddenly out came the knives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 Who said she's up for the part? All I have read is NB pimping out Crystal or Nadia for that role They probably have a casting call out because they don't want to pay anyone. If they were willing to pay the money why not bring Megan Ward back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 KA has a twitter account: https://twitter.com/#!/KJAlfonso Gee what a shocker, CC is playing victim on twitter, saying she didn't read what Nelson posted, LMAO what a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 She is, but she stays out of all that, just focuses on her jewelery. Peter Reckell briefly defended her (just asking people to stop). Molly Burnett, Judi Evans, and the guy who plays Chad were defending Crystal, although Molly was the main one. Some felt she was also praising or condoning Branco. She later said she didn't like his comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 For some reason she feels she needs his support. WHy I don't know. He's toxic. Look at what happens to all the people he "supports" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 I see it still, but he has no followers and his tweets are gone https://twitter.com/#!/SudsReport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 Yup and unlike this time around which happened on twitter, the stuff he said about Brett & Scott he wrote right in his column, so they had a pretty clear cut case to sue him (I wish they would have).

Members DRW50 Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 I guess it wouldn't have been worth the time and money wasted. I was really upset about that at the time, and probably still am, because both of them had given everything in their performances, at a time when many of OLTL's actors barely managed to stay awake, and as a result, they were not only fired, not only blamed in TV Guide for the ratings fall, but then they were personally smeared. And it just shows the shallowness of today's soap journalism, this one in particular, that suddenly, they went from being praised to being demonized.

Members dragonflies Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 He said Bope fans emailed his editor and he got in trouble LOL. I guess that's what set him off. I guess his editor was PISSED at him. Sorry Nellie I think it was coming anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 The fact that Branco is considered a soap jounalist is one of the biggest jokes out there. I may not be a fan of Logan or Fairman, but they at least try to be impartial even if they aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 I am shocked the Lane fans haven't gotten him in trouble with his hate for CK. Couldn't happen to a bigger douchebag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted June 12, 2011 Members Share Posted June 12, 2011 U mean Scott evans Not Clifton but yeah he took the word of a source at OLYL (Riumored to be Farah Fath) That Brett & Scott were unprofessional and ran with it but never asked for their side of the story. Kinda funny given that qith the mTS Y&R thing he swears he got both sides. Tell that to MTS. I wonder if tV gyide canada will fire him It looks like his twitter may be suspended but not gone, all the tweets are still there and he has no followers or is following. Maybe temporary since i follow him and never unfriended him. So maybe twitter is blocking him for a few days for punishment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
