US PR company spoils second episode of Game of Thrones *SPOILER ALERT*
Dr Mumbo is concerned Game of Thrones fans may have had the most recent episode of the HBO series spoiled by a US PR company who issued an email promoting a Game of Thrones-themed stunt, with a subject heading spoiling the second episode of the series.
Dr Mumbo warns readers who are yet to watch the second episode of the series to not continue reading due to major spoilers.
We even put trailers below to ensure no one accidentally had the show ruined… So, you’ve been warned. Scroll at your own risk.
The fury this email generated across our global offices..
Should’ve downloaded it earlier?
….so obviously people don’t read? The series is soooo much more exciting when you’ve read the books.
Really?
The storyline of GoT is no big secret. Unless you’re illiterate, which means you probably won’t be reading this.
It’s like telling someone, don’t tweet about the sports scores, or news or life in general, because you might spoil the surprise for someone who hasn’t experienced it yet.
Avoiding spoilers is one thing, but having the spoiler emailed directly to you with the spoiler as the first four words of the subject line is pretty poor form. Especially considering how tenuous the link.
