Walking Dead social media spoils mid-season finale death (Spoilers)
It’s no secret that spoilers become a huge deal when you’re dealing with watching a popular show. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that some fans may get spoiled by other fans while on many various platforms of social media, but I bet the last thing you’d expect to get spoilers from is the show itself.
Following the end of the East Coast broadcast of The Walking Dead’s 8th episode of Season 5, the show’s official social media accounts posted a photo of the exit of one of its main cast members that sent many its followers into a frenzy.

The show airs earlier on the east coast due to time difference, while many fans else where have yet to see the episode. It is easy to see how the spoiling of Beth’s death could angry so many fans who have yet to see the finale. Given that live tweeting along with the tv shows have become increasingly popular.
Tell us what you think. Do you think The Walking Dead posted the photo too soon or should fans know by now to stay away from all social media? Let us know in the comments below.
