A local radio station where I live did something similar to this. They started following everyone with a connection to either radio or the area. It started out as a decent account--someone at the station replied to tweets, followed new people and so on. In return, they garnered a good few hundred followers.

Then suddenly, their "following" count decreased to zero--they unfollowed everyone they'd been following. Now it's just a one-way broadcast, a few promotional slogans and plugs for programmes getting sent out every day. Weird.

Who cares? If they start spamming their feed the followers can quite easily unfollow.

Apparently the vocal minority among the vocal minority cares. Hence we get to read about it...
