Example 1)<br />

"Hello, now it <strong>is</strong> time for me to speak out. I am just now returning from a party where<br />

they served KitKat. The host's daughter (10) said she would not eat th<strong>is</strong> because it<br />

contains a gorilla. In d<strong>is</strong>belief I asked what she meant and found out that her older<br />

brother had seen a video where KitKat <strong>is</strong> the finger of a gorilla. And it also contains<br />

blood. I did some research and found th<strong>is</strong> video; I have to confess: it <strong>is</strong> really<br />

d<strong>is</strong>gusting. Is th<strong>is</strong> necessary? Do humans/children get confused by th<strong>is</strong>? Never mind<br />

who <strong>is</strong> doing th<strong>is</strong>, it <strong>is</strong> d<strong>is</strong>turbing! Ugh!"<br />

Example 2)<br />

"Yes, th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> necessary, because the reality <strong>is</strong> even worse. It should be even worse! It<br />

<strong>is</strong> how it <strong>is</strong>. And I am imputing the worst to company groups such as Nestlé. Parties<br />

involved in making the marketing of drinking water so expensive deserve to be<br />

silenced. Dear (XY), obtain proper information and you will be amazed because life <strong>is</strong><br />

no walk in the park. But your daughter <strong>is</strong> smart!"<br />

Example 3)<br />

"Don’t blame the PR team. They certainly did not advice the dec<strong>is</strong>ion makers to<br />

delete the video on Youtube. Nobody <strong>is</strong> l<strong>is</strong>tening to PR consultants ... Others should<br />

do their homework first: managers, buyers, marketing, product manager, legal<br />

department etc. Th<strong>is</strong> would prevent such cr<strong>is</strong>es from even happening."<br />

Example 4)<br />

"I like it. I have been avoiding nestle products as much as possible for years. NB: <strong>is</strong><br />

not really appropriate here, but funny: kitkat <strong>is</strong> like commun<strong>is</strong>m, it <strong>is</strong> red and you have<br />

to share it."<br />
