Who knows? Ihre 15 min an Extra-Aufmerksamkeit hat sie sich redlich erarbeitet. Inkl. Kontakt zu einem no-name-actor. Überflüssig das!

I don’t know if she backed down. think she wants to quiet things down and make it stop ( and so does he, I believe). I’m sure that Armistace line is not too original, but it’s clever.

No, we’ve been saying “Richard Armistice” for a while now. I’m sure he wanted it to calm down. Not sure about her. She seems to pick high profile things to talk about on purpose.

She’s still tweeting about it:
“Have spent the evening being read excerpts from Richard Armitage’s Wikipedia page and have come to the conclusion that he is like the world’s most humble saint, and I am the jerk on twitter who had mocked the world’s humble saint.”
She clearly thrives in this kind of negative attention.

I don’t thinks so,Sev.
She is just immature provocateur wounded by an actor with “no name” 😉

This interaction is increasingly reminding me of the RA US / Hewson & Hartley debacle of 2014.
LikeLike
How so? BTW, I was interested to note that RA US and her RL identity’s response. So, uh, polite.
LikeLike
In that exchange, RAUS continued to insist that the issue was her use of the “Armitage Army” tag when the real problem was how she’d treated Hewson and Hartley.
LikeLike
Ah. Yes. Well it was both, IMO, because she was appropriating the designation,setting herself up as leader and at the same time acting in a way that was an embarrassment to fans who felt part of AA, and also, those who don;t feel or like the designation AA were also lumped in. But yes, in this case, Schwartz is trying to backtrack and deflect from the issue that she was unnecessarily and very publicly ignorant and rude even if she had a reasonable point of wanting an A-lister.

Above all, it’s the same disingenuous about the actual discussion. Not “I overstepped a boundary” but “you are being ridiculous, crazy, unreasonable.”

Back to normal? The twitter-gate difused? A line was crossed because Ms Schwartz’s tirade was uncalled for.
I wonder what she got out of it, and why she felt the need to speak in CAPITALS about an actor she doesn’t know?

I really think she thought everyone would agree with her.

We’ve just discussed the age-thing and generation in a more recent post. But this is true, it must be a generational thing.

Doubt it will happen, but I suggested maybe she should try doing her homework BEFORE tweeting if she intends to be taken seriously as a reviewer.

I’m getting more and more the sense that she sees herself as some kind of comic writer — in which case, I think she doesn’t want to be taken seriously.
LikeLike
I think so. I read some excerpts from her forthcoming book on Amazon. Snarky and I thought a bit nasty. I think she sees herself as a creative non-fiction humorist.
