The phrase "did [someone/something] dirty" is used to describe a situation where someone has been treated unfairly, misrepresented, or given a poor deal. In the context of media releases, it often refers to a studio or publisher failing to provide the proper resources, marketing, or respect that a project deserves. It conveys a sense of injustice and betrayal felt by the fans on behalf of the creators or the work itself. The emotional tone is one of protective indignation and solidarity with the slighted party.

> I can't believe they cancelled the show on a cliffhanger; they really did the fans dirty.
