This is the bigger picture people are missing. Not the bullshit of who she slept with. Look at all the outpouring for support she's getting from the typical douches in the industry (sup, Phil Fishy Fingers).

He wrote about her March 31st. Zoe admits to fucking him early April. He posted the article literally hours before she admits to fucking him. If you read through the blog, you would see Zoe lies countless times and keeps making up new stories. So we have a known pathological liar telling you she "thinks" they…

There was quite a lot of coverage about it. The main reason it felt like people didn't care is summed up in the first comment of this article:

I agree that there are standards, but as it was pointed out that the article really isn't "positive press" or promotion. (I guess you could say that it's attacking Polaris, but there were many others in the story)If the article was promoting her or her games, then I absolutely agree that it should have been mentioned.

Integrity... by Reuters?
Whoa, this is not sarcasm, is it?

i really only got interested in the story when i started seeing comments getting deleted. one second there and *poof*. no more.

im more alarmed that any and every comment addressing this for days was being deleted.

The funny thing is I remember a number of years back when people learned that Matt Cassamassina, former editor of IGN's Nintendo channels, was married to somebody at Nintendo's PR firm, and nobody seemed to have nearly as much concern about journalistic ethics.

I don't really get why so many people who claim that they favour Social Justice are apparently uninterested in the truth of this whole mess just because one of the people involved is a women.

Does this mean that women dont have to face consequences when they mess up?
Does this mean that nepotism is a-ok if you are a…

Yep because he clearly wouldn't write an article mentioning her beforehand in order to get favors later. That has certainly never happened before in the industry, no sir.

The approval system is here because of some rape-gif's from Jezebel.

Brian was great but polygon is a fucking mess. Talk about hip, holy fuck! Anyways yes, Stephen is great and respect the article.

Stephen, the video by the InternetAristocrat proves that Nathan did in fact write about Depression Quest in a positive manner. To say IA faked the article and then delete the real one is not professional. To go to this extent of damage control, is only further tarnishing your journalistic integrity. Please do not try…

She has exploited the depressed, created false allegations of harassment, doxxed people, destroyed a feminist games project. Is it alright to have that called out or are you going to engage in a faux-feminist defense of that as well?

Let me explain why it's important that the coverage occurred before the relationship.

Nice joke! But there's a worthy answer for me to give you, because I should point out that if we did a review, Nathan wouldn't be allowed to do it, though I also am sure he'd never ask to.

It's an issue with journalism. Journalists are supposed to be impartial, unbiased sources of information. Sleeping with someone you're reporting about is absolutely going to alter how you cover any news related to them.

I just thought she was annoying and not worth the time to care about, cheating hypocrite or no.

Thanks for the clarification. But you're avoiding the real issue we all have: When will the Depression Quest review be live?
