The blog/social media world is not always a nice place. It can be very difficult to find an entertainment site that isn't rumor mill driven or negative at some point. Let's not even get into how hateful and unnecessarily dramatic people can be on social media. To gossip, spread lies, and even bully has almost become the culture of most of the entertainment blog world and social media timelines.
It appears that at least one celeb is ready to talk about it from her perspective. Ciara took time yesterday to write an open letter to bloggers, and readers alike. One might wonder what would cause some of these sites or people to be so hateful. I've learned from experience that most of these sites are just posting whatever they believe will win them a hit or two, even if that puts their good karma at risk.
For bloggers whose only income is their site, they're driving hits to eat and pay bills. The unfortunate truth is it's really hard for a positive, fact driven, entertainment blog to pick up steam without having some juice on it. As mentioned- it's almost a necessity to have the juicy "tea" in order to have hits. While I totally understand Ciara, and I agree with her almost 100%.. it is up to the reader to decide what site fits them, and what they're willing to support.
