Mtv- ‘Twilight’ Web Site Controversy Inspires Strong Reactions

Submit News | Posted by Geo | Categories: MTV

Mtv has a new blog related to the hacking of the lex. See it here.

Several users who commented on the MTV News story suggested that it wasn’t necessarily “Breaking Dawn” that had the perpetrators riled up.

“I don’t agree with how the Lex blames it all on ‘BD’ haters,” user Sarah wrote. “I think its much more than that. It was Lex haters!”

“From what I understand the hacking had nothing to do with the books, but rather the manifesto that the Lexicon recently put up, which pretty much took away posters’ freedom to share their true opinions on the book,” user lcculpep echoed. “I don’t agree with what the hacker did, but at the same time I think the Lexicon is taking things just a tad too far. … The manifesto isn’t the first time they have tried to take control of the fandom.”

The Manifesto was a nine-point bulletin posted by Lexicon staff members, breaking down their new rules for discussion.

wow, i cant believe all the drama that’s going on, because i’m not going to say that ” their just books” because they are not just books, and this whole drama going on with Lex and hackers should stop because it’s serverly stupid… i think that everyone should just stop and think before putting unorthodox plans into action…=/

What the heck? MTV is still getting the story wrong. Since when has the Lex controlled readers? Never…I’m more upset by all the wrong facts than the fact that it’s still being talked about.

Is this manifesto for real? What are they afraid of? I’m a fan even though BD was disappointing to me. Intelligent fans should be allowed to respectfully share opposing opinions. Not just about books, but that is how we grow…by listening to each other.

It’s like this thing is just being fueled more and more. Please, just let it die. o_O

wow…can you say “control freak???”
I agree with AW we should be able to express our opposite opions. I think its sad and kind of annoying the reasons that people didnt like it, but no one should be able to ban them.
