After a damning documentary by ‘The New York Times,’ mainstream media has taken note of the singer’s plight.
The #FreeBritney movement has some new supporters. Yesterday, Miami radio station Hits 97.3 tweeted that they’d be playing Britney’s music all weekend in honor of the pop legend, while also standing in solidarity with her and the legal situation she’s currently embroiled in. As The New York Times documentary Framing Britney Spears made abundantly clear, Spears is in an illegal and abusive conservatorship — as conservatorship lawyer Lisa MacCarley also confirmed to us in an interview — and fans have been putting public pressure on the case for years now. The documentary has helped the situation move from the world of pop to a mainstream conversation, and radio stations are showing their support by raising awareness further.
