Taylor Swift is officially all the rage.. for multiple reasons. Her ugly feud with Scooter Braun and Big Machine over her music rights even went as far as her AMAs performance. But with Braun's family now getting constant death threats from Taylor's fans, was she right to rally her droves online to get action? And who was in the wrong ultimately?
We're also in awe of Sacha Baren Cohen's keynote at the Anti-Defamation League conference on hate speech and social media. He reckons Hitler could have bought an ad on Facebook these days, and called on wider social media to be more responsible for the content their users create. So we're wondering if social media, particularly Zucks and FB, should be regulated further when it comes to #FakeNews.
The ARIA Awards are also this week (does anyone care?) Probs not, so to spice it up we've chucked a friendly wager on who can guess the most correct award winners from the night..
Trends & Tings is hosted by Sydney creatives, Gordon D'Mello and Scott Singh.
