Disney, Nickelodeon Monitor Social Media Of Tween Stars

Disney and Nickelodeon are monitoring the social networks of stars like Debby Ryan and Victoria Justice to keep tween talent in line.

A report from Reuters reveals that talent managers and casting agents acknowledge that the two companies are protecting their young investments by shadowing them online.

One agent relays that one of her clients lost a job after he posted too much information about a project online.

Cartoon Network reportedly asked a young star to take down a tweet that disparaged Jamba Juice because they were a potential sponsor.

One non-disclosure agreement Reuters obtained warned actors of “the right to seek civil and criminal penalties” for revealing information on social networks.
