Kami Colter calls out The Waltons fan pages reposting her content
The Waltons’ Elizabeth, Kami Cotler, is speaking out against fan pages. The crux of the issue is the unauthorized use of Cotler’s content, a practice that has apparently crossed a line for the actress.
As a testament to the show’s enduring popularity, fans have created numerous fan pages dedicated to celebrating the iconic series. However, the actress’s recent statement suggests that the line between appreciation and exploitation has been blurred. She is therefore taking a stand with a strong Facebook post, making her concerns and boundaries clear.
Kami Cotler’s post states that some of The Waltons’ fan pages are improperly sharing her content. Meanwhile, others are copying and pasting without credit. She had attempted to add her name and date to posts to provide attribution, but the information is being deleted. As a result, she is considering taking action to reclaim her content.
Fans of Kami Cotler and The Waltons have ever since flooded her social media with support comments, praising her for standing up for herself and protecting her intellectual property. The backlash against the fan pages in question has been swift, with many calling for them to give credit where it’s due.
“Put the written by info throughout the text. Make them work for it,” suggested a well-wisher. “I am very aware of all these. Several bad apples,” informed another. “I have seen posts that I was pretty sure were yours on other pages,” echoed a fan.
Following her acting career, Kami Cotler pursued a career in education, serving as a teacher and subsequently as a school principal at an environmental charter school in California.
