media. Before, opposing fans had no way to harass each other. Now it comes on a daily basis. It is crazy how we put so much pressure and scrutiny on these kids. We are all guilty to some degree. Lots of things in America were better before social media, that's for sure.

I have always said that Facebook is the Devil.

Actually, it's social media including the internet and the fan sites that are the devil.

Gossip and fan griping used to spread slowly before the internet. Now it spreads in milliseconds.
