I'm so tired of checking out my email or browsing the websites and suddenly there's a link or web clip of a spoiler popping up about a TV series that I am watching and I haven't caught the latest or up to date yet.
Why the hell these websites have to keep hinting or posting spoilers of what is going to happen? I am so sick of that.
This is why sometimes I just don't bother watching the latest TV series and then binge watch the whole season so I don't give a frack what the spoilers are and just go for binge watch when season is over. So sick and tired of the media these days.

Get a better Spam filter for you email account? Also, it sounds like you need to adjust your browser setting higher for pop-ups.

The only site I'm signed up for is each show thread here. If people post it's my choice whether to read or not.
If you're getting emails on certain shows then you must be signed up for it. Next time either don't open the email or open it and hit unsubscribe. Same with staying off of sites that would tell you about the episode
Because it's no longer a spoiler if the show has aired. It's no one else's fault that you haven't caught up yet.
If you record the Superbowl to watch later, is no one allowed to discuss who won until you have a chance to watch it? Same concept.
To an extent.
I think it is perfectly acceptable for outlets to write articles discussing the last night's episode of (whatever). My problem is that in this age of DVRs there are countless people watching episodes after they aired. If you want to have an article about a show maybe not spoil it in the title. Heck last week I was walking by the tv. A teaser for "Entertainment Tonight" came on. "See what's next for recently ousted bachelorette Corinne". Thanks guys, we hadnt seen it yet. Is it that hard to say "who got the boot last night? See it here and see what's up next for them".
Our local news (as well as GMA) loves to discuss "Dancing with the Stars" the day after elimination. Since we DVR the show it means we dont watch that news for 2 days every week. Seems to not make sense to give folks a reason to change the channel.
To me, if I have seen the episode I dont need you to tell me about it. If I havent seen the episode and want to, I dont need you to spoil it for me. If I havent seen the episode and didnt want to then I have no interest in you telling me about it. Basically nothing good comes from you telling me about it.
So how long are they supposed to wait? A day? A week? A month? Too soon and people complain that they haven't watched it yet. Too late, and the relevance is gone.
You can spoil it 30 seconds later if you want. Just dont put it in the title or in your teasers. Also just know that if you wasnt to talk about it in my morning news I will change the channel. If that is ok then knock yourself out.

Doesn't seem to bother them (at least on GMA). Their teasers at the top of the hour usually don't say exactly what happened, but that they'll be talking about it in more detail (i.e. "Shocker on the dance floor last night. Who was sent home, and what does it mean for the remaining contestants?")

Once the info gets out I have no real interst in watching the episode.

With TV series being made available digitally for viewing at any given time, airing a TV series is meaningless. There are several series that are only available on Netflix and Amazon Prime that are not on OTA TV or cable stations.
My point being that websites have a right to talk about the show but they do need to be sensitive like some reviewers by posting the *Spoiler alert* title.
That's why last year Game of Thrones kept sticking to the story that Jon Snow was dead yet the media kept speculating that he's alive and trying to lead stories about him being alive with sketchy proof.
