A fake news site said Orange is the New Black was cancelled, and fans got REALLY mad
IT’S A HUGELY popular, critically acclaimed, Emmy-nominated comedy, but that doesn’t prevent Orange is the New Black from being subject to cancellation rumours.
This one sprang from a story on ‘satirical news website’ Empire News, and gained traction on Twitter after the article was published on Friday.
It claimed OITNB had been cancelled after a disagreement between show creator Jenji Kohan and Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings.
The article contains some really awful ‘quotes’ from Hastings, such as:
Netflix soon swooped to the rescue and reassured everyone that OITNB would continue – but not before everyone had a good righteous freak out.
Whoops!
