Default Fleetwood Mac News // FB, Instagram // change in admin, ownership?

Curious if anyone knows if Fleetwood Mac News on FB and Instagram (and their own site) has changed ownership recently?

It seems to have taken a very divisive tone lately, posting a lot of ticket sales and numbers memes showing a very pro-new band/anti-Lindsey Buckingham sentiment.

And if any honest comments come in simply stating how Lindsey's energy and guitar playing is missed, there are quick defensive replys in the comment section.

If your reaction to a recent show is critical, then your opinion isn't valid.
Just seems very different to how the site/and social media accounts were run prior to this current tour.
It used to be in celebration of the entire band's history, but now seems very anti-Buckingham and very pro Stevie. I'm wondering if possibly the band's PR company is running it now.

Obviously some $tevie drone.

The Ledge will always be the best option for open opinion about them.

I noticed the same a couple of months ago. At first, when Lindsey was fired they used to celebrate and promote his solo tour. Now they seem to have forgotten what this bunch of .... people did to Lindsey and they’re promoting their tour with great enthusiasm and with their eyes folded

I blocked them on Twitter a long time ago.

Long live The Ledge!

They deleted a ton of posts and people got blocked. Shame that they have to be all 1 sided now but then the Stevie cult members are pretty weird.

What I have noticed is the lack of activity in Christine's facebook. She used to post with some frequency since the On with the show tour. But since 2018 there are just some few posts and look more posted by a community manager.

Christine has been replaced by the woman who was on the cover of The Dance.

Saying that Christine airbrushed or even altered any (AND I MEAN ANY) of her photos in any way shape or form is against board rules. This is your last warning.

HAHAH. I know this is a joke. Because, well, if it isn't then this is redonkulous. Because, she IS airbrushed! And so is Stevie. Hell, they are ALL airbrushed! LOL

What about $tevie's own "close up director", for Tango? $he was worried about that sh*t 32 years ago!

$he was young, but $he was also a bloated drug addict...

Now now, she wasn't a "bloated" drug addict until the tour.
