Bachelorette 14 - Becca Kufrin - Media SM - Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #5

Usually you see editor's notes at the end of the article, not in the middle of the freakin quote. I felt like someone was interrupting me.

@GuardianAngel IKR?..so friggin funny!

Sharleen's Flare recap is up. As per usual, she nailed everything IMO

But, has Becca have truly spoken out about an unpopular issue the way Rachel and OG Lauren B have? I don't think so (I might be wrong). I think that if these issues were really that important to her, she wouldn't have picked a guy like Garrett. IMO.

She was at the Women's March in 2017 and has posted things implying she leaned liberal. I don't think she's touched on specific issues.

Has it been mentioned that there won’t be an episode on June 11th because of the NBA finals? Looks like they will have to double up episodes one week like they do a lot of seasons.

RS mentioned that in his column today. He obviously doesn't know how they'll schedule things.

I tend to think that editor placement of the People blog was on purpose.  Let’s insert this here.   Then we can say we mentioned it, but it’s not the final impression of the blog,  Maybe readers will forget by the time they get to the end.  Lol

Becca has described Garrett at least twice as clever.  Very strange descriptor for the love of her life, imo.

Was Becca on Live With Kelly today? Or is it tomorrow?

IMO she intended to imply that G is not as dumb as some of these people may think, albeit the IG likes. Perhaps something along the line of : He is a clever man, just with a very dark sense of humor and roughness that makes him edgy and very sexy to me..why oh why these peeps can't see it??...*stomp2* (my imaginary thinking of Becca's thought)

@Joy15 I guess that’s how she’ll rationalize it.  Idk.  Anyone who followed that account, much less liked some of their posts, is not clever to me.  

But, go ahead Becca.  Go get your clever man.

Right, I do know all that! But, like I've said before, that's easier to do than actually speak out about racism or gun laws or immigration bans the way Rachel and Lauren B have done. I think that being "political" has become kind of the cool thing to do, especially when it's posting funny pictures or making funny, snarky posters for marches, but people that actually care enough to tweet about issues, knowing that they'll alienate fans? That's much harder to do and usually shows a less superficial interest in politics. And, Rachel did that while her season was airing so it's not a matter of the show "not letting you". Of course, I'm totally assuming and speculating but I think someone who truly, truly cared would never have picked Garrett, not even knowing about the bigotry. That's just my opinion though.

With people mag editor including the commentary regarding Garrett in Becca’s Episode 1 blog today, i wonder what will happen now to their post finale photoshoot....curious if People mag will give them a front page spread. Anyone know if People mag is contractually bound to make the photoshoot front page on their mag? Thanks

Andi, Nick, Des were all leads and none of them got the big cover photo like Rachel/Bryan , Jojo/Jordan etc. They all just had a small pictures on the cover but with a feature still in the magazine. So to answer your question: No, I don't think People has to give them the cover.
