AMAs died when Reddit fired Victoria, they haven’t been worth a shit in a while.
Victoria leaving was tragic but can we talk about Rampart?
Lol I remember someone in that thread asking Woody if he remembered taking a high school girl to her prom and knocking her up. And the social media manager faking Woody’s involvement just answering “can we stick to the movie?”
Yeah the entire AMA was a dumpster fire, but that was when things really devolved. It quickly got upvoted to the top, and it refused to die. Every single comment he made was quickly bombed with “why haven’t you answered that prom question yet” responses.
I just had a good laugh at myself because rampart is so non-existent in my mind, that I had to Google what the hell you were talking about.
So Woody Harrelson is forever famous for the worst AMA ever because he aggressively plugged a movie that must've been so bad and irrelevant that I have no idea what people are talking about when they reference it today.
I always have time to talk about Rampart.
They mention this in the article
Who is Victoria?
In the statement from the AMA mods, they stated that if Reddit wanted to continue providing that sort of celebrity outreach that they had been doing for free, they should hire a liaison for that.
Before the mods took that responsibility on for themselves, Victoria (/u/chooter on Reddit) used to be that person.
Victoria was able to pull in some big names for AMAs, and she was good at identifying good/interesting questions and helping with submitting responses. Reddit unceremoniously fired her one day and the quality of celebrity AMAs dropped significantly after that.
do we have any idea what they fired her for? I keep seeing people that are mad about it, but I don't feel like I have enough information to know if it was really unjustified
It is not known exactly who made the decision or why. Apparently even to her.
