TV networks hire PI to scope stars’ social media for racism
NY Post ^ | June 17, 2020 | Oil Coleman

A group of big TV networks — including CBS, MTV and VH1 — have hired famed private investigator Edward Myers to probe their own stars’ social media accounts to root out any racist comments, Page Six has exclusively learned. The move comes after a spate of celebrities were recently fired over resurfaced racist posts. Last week, Bravo fired “Vanderpump Rules” stars Brett Caprioni and Max Boyens for offensive tweets, and on Wednesday the network canned “Below Deck Mediterranean” star Peter Hunziker for a racist Instagram post. Meanwhile, the CW fired Hartley Sawyer from “The Flash,” and MTV let go “Teen Mom’s” Taylor Selfridge for similar offenses (although Selfridge claims she quit).

Never got involved with social media because years ago Facebook played a key role in destroying the marriage of someone close to me.

Sure looking like the right call.

He should check their kitchen cabinets for Aunt Jemima Syrup and Uncle Ben’s rice while he’s at it.

A Khmer Rouge cleansing of Hollyweirdos.

Live by the social media account, die by the social media account.

Meanwhile, schadenfreude.

In other words, hurry up and find them so they can be deleted before anyone else finds out.

Rotten to the core.

Bottom line: if you are white, you’re screwed.

I for one will not lament the loss of TV and movies. Music has been gone for 35+ years so no big deal there.

Yes, not sure why people on this thread are happy about this. This is more of the downward spiral of this country. I'm sure anti-white posts from non-white celebrities will be ignored by this PI. This is about outing the right-leaning celebs.
