Click Bait

When I talked to Josh, the producer, prior to the air day he was giving me a run down of what to expect with the release, they only tell you a couple days ahead of time. He said the idea is to present the information and then let the viewer sit with it.

He said that I should watch it alone. I told him I was going to be throwing a children’s Halloween party that evening with 24 kids plus adults. I had been working on the party for months: I even crocheted 24 little ghosts for the kids.

He said well, don’t watch it there with everyone!

I got no heads up other than that as to what they were presenting.

And when Nikki started posting the clickbait on social media, I almost had a stroke.

And then the show.

They created a space for me to be bullied, judged, lied about. All to click to a show where I was purposefully portrayed as an accomplice to something I didn’t do. And they knew I didn’t do it. And they used the space of my hometown to set the story. The hometown I had returned to for safety, where my kids go to school and are trying to recover.

How is the viewer supposed to “sit with the information” when they aren’t given the actual story?

I think this is one of the most EVIL things that has ever happened to me. And I’ve been through some evil stuff.
