* The late Seattle restaurateur Ivar Haglund was notorious for his [[Crazy Awesome]] stunts. Buying the local TV station to give yourself an excuse to sing Norwegian folk songs for an hour a week? Sending the City Building department a protest in metered rhyme? Taking a baby seal in a pram to meet Santa? Running for office and getting elected as a joke? ''Underwater billboards?!'' Yeah. The local newspapers never knew what he was going to pull.

* [[Older Than Radio]] example: [[Marie Antoinette]]. She was viewed as a symbol of the decadent monarchy and nobility that was running France into the ground, with the final straw being the [[wikipedia:Affair of the Diamond Necklace|Affair of the Diamond Necklace]], in which a prominent courtier was tricked by a con artist into buying the priceless trinket under the impression he was doing her a discreet favour. There was no proof of her involvement, and most historians feel that she had nothing to do with it, but her reputation was so bad that nobody doubted it. She and the monarchy lost what little credibility they still had with the French people, and [[The French Revolution]] broke out a few years later.

* The entire state of [[Florida]], so much that we even have [[Only in Florida|a trope]] about it.
