Dear tumblr, this is your #LOL page. Three of these videos are the same video. You chose to have unpaid community editors do this for you and this is what it looks like. Please make your tag pages worth looking at and credit original posters vs. HuffPo and Kelly Oxford who came WAY after the fact (seriously, look at those notes). You have to do better than this.

When community editors tag a post it automatically selects the original post, not a reblog. If a post has already been tagged and an editor tries to tag it, it gives you an error message. Triple tagging content is human error and can easily be rectified by editors sporadically checking the tracked tag page. 

In this instance, I know for a fact Huff Post TV was the first to post the Kristen Bell video (after it being posted to Ellen’s YouTube page), but when something goes viral this is what happens.
