“Received a subtle threat in mail about deleting a tweet of a recent film that I didn’t like much. Mood hi kharab kar diya hai. PR and fan groups should be evolving, not going backwards. Let people have an original opinion for god’s sake!”

As more content is being paid for to reach more people, it becomes difficult for audiences to know if they’re seeing honest opinions or just ads dressed up as normal posts.

Content creators, journalists, and fans should stay true to their own opinions and keep being honest.
