Social media consumer influencer @RodMagaru: Are his political tweets a breach of his product endorsement contracts?

Much has been said about the possibility that Queen of All Philippine Media Kris Aquino may have put at risk her mega-million peso product endorsement deals by being revealed as a possible source of funds for the Facebook “boosts” Pinoy Ako Blog personality Jover Laurio has been enjoying.

So one wonders then, are such contract stipulations barring product endorsers from engaging in political punditry also included in consumer “influencer” Rod Magaru’s social media promotions contracts? For Magaru’s sake, we hope not seeing what that he had something important to say to TV personality James Deakin…

At some point in one’s life, one needs to decide what one really wants to be: (1) a minion of clever corporate marketing or (2) a minion of big oligarchic politics. As the Crazy Rich One herself is discovering, you can’t be both.
