At almost all Facebook fanpages that TLC/Discovery have made for the programs that air there are people that attack fans. It would be in the best interest of rating if people can come to the Facebook fanpages to find information about upcoming specials/show times. Many fans are scared to comment on official fanpages in fear they will be attacked for their views. On one TLC fanpage in particular, Kate plus 8, there is a group thats sole purpose is to attack, harass, intimidate, and bully fans just so they do not comment and/or leave. It has even been taken to personal attacks, lies, and cyberbullying. I along with others that enjoy the programs and sharing with other fans ask for TLC/Discovery to interviene to stop what I have stated above. Please moniter/moderate your fansites on Facebook.
The bullying on these fanpages has become constant and it is driving away the community we built. I am currently compiling screenshots of the harassment to send directly to the network's social media management team. Please screenshot any abusive comments you see and send them to me so we have a clear record of this behavior.

The momentum behind this push is real and it shows that people are tired of being bullied on these pages. Tag the social media leads for TLC on Twitter and tell them to look at our demands today. We need to keep this pressure on them until they commit to active moderation.

DISGRACEFUL behavior. I should be able to talk about my favorite shows without getting harassed by trolls. Do your job Discovery.

The bullying on the Kate plus 8 page is so out of control. I stopped even reading the comments because it is just people being mean for no reason. Fix this.
