This is in response to your piece here. If you want to claim that people “spin fiction [sic] to manipulate public perception” next time, you might want to check if you are doing that yourself. BTW, a spin or spin control is the act or practice of attempting to manipulate the way an event is interpreted by others. If you don’t understand what spin means, and how to use it in a sentence, I suggest you not use it. 

Now, you’ve talked about this tweet by Sara:

You claimed that Sara is a publicist from Nashville. That is true, however, her Twitter bio clearly states that she is a book publicist, not a music publicist.

Her LinkedIn profile further confirms this:

Please read her brief job description properly. Where does it say she’s a publicist in the music business? Yes, she is a publicist, but there are many types of publicists, hun. It’s not only the music industry that hires publicists. Other industries need publicists too. Besides, the network required to be in the book publishing business is very different from the ones needed to be in the music entertainment business. How the hell can you not understand this simple knowledge and claim to have evidence of Kaylor? You twist facts that she happens to be a publicist, and happens to be based in Nashville to help promote your PR theories. Your infactual blog post is the classic case of spin. Manipulating facts here to your own advantage to lie to impressionable people when you don’t even know how to research facts properly. Just this embarrassing fact makes your blog and everyone else who believe in your lies, lose all credibility. Didn’t you claim your readers who believe in your PR theories are a smart and logical lot who research facts properly? Where is this integrity and logic that you and your readers speak of? 

The quote where Karlie talks about falling in love was from this Metro article dated 5 February 2014, not 2015 like you suggested, TTB.  Also, I think anyone who knows how to use punctuation, already know that square brackets are used by a second person, to clarify what was stated by the first/original speaker. It's a redundant analysis on your end. FYI, here’s the partial transcript of the interview from Metro:

Have you ever stood someone up or been stood up? Um, let me think. No, I don’t think so. I’m 21 years old, so I haven’t been on too many dates, and I have a boyfriend. That would be terrible to be stood up. Do you believe in love at first sight? Yeah, I do. I was definitely not planning on falling in love [with boyfriend Josh Kushner]. But I think that’s the thing about it, you can’t anticipate or plan it.

Metro, [online] Available at: http://www.metro.us/lifestyle/karlie-kloss-talks-josh-kushner-and-new-york-fashion-week-metro-us/tmWnbe---1bNYfvD62vD9M/ Karlie talked about her boyfriend before answering the love at first sight question. It’s pretty evident she’s talking about falling in love with her boyfriend here. I mean, don’t you know how to Google simple facts like where the quote first appeared, and to read the FULL interview properly? Your smartphone is only as smart as you are, TTB. Remember that.  Who’s the spin doctor here? Clearly you.

lol Wikipedia:

“Louis XI was very superstitious and surrounded himself with astrologers. Interested in science, he once pardoned a man sentenced to death on condition that he serve as a guinea pig for a gallstone operation.

Through war, cunning, and sheer guile, Louis XI overcame France's feudal lords, and at the time of his death in the Château of Plessis-lez-Tours, he had united France and laid the foundations of a strong monarchy. He was, however, a secretive, reclusive man, and few mourned his death.”
