These writers may have a social media presence (that's how I contacted several of them), but a long-form article meant to go on various websites of general interest still isn't the same as me deliberately wading into a dedicated, focused social media site/page/feed that is clearly about nothing but spoilers and the like. I know to avoid those if I don't want to be spoiled.
That's my beef.
Just don't put spoilers in the damn headlines. That's all. It's that easy.
You can say "Episode One of the New Season of The Mandalorian Delivered on a Mind-blowing Cameo" or whatever. Appropriately vague, non-committal and teasing (just how I like my women) is fine.
But you don't say/show who it was, in the headlines/artwork.
Not less than 24 hours. Maybe 1-2 weeks? I don't know. But sure as shit, not the same weekend. Period.
