Am I reading this wrong or is there a pretty consistent through line that Bobby Kotick makes a whole lot of poor business decisions based entirely on how damaged his ego is at the moment? Sadly he will get a golden parachute no matter what but Microsoft probably should consider drop kicking him asap after acquisition.…

Based on the review and other info, I get feeling that Neve Campbell accepting the offer would have actually created problems for them story wise. Considering how she kept having to be shoehorned into the previous 2 or so films in a way that wasn’t exactly natural, it would have been even weirder to have her show up…

So..is it a reach to jump to the conclusion that GameStop might be having financial troubles and couldn’t pay the vendor for exclusive packages?

While not a fan of the tactic “Vote for me to prove you are not racist”, its a good card to play especially in Hollywood. Could work, just has to turn on more then it turns off.

In effect you just said “once a racist, alwasys a racist.” declaring people cannot change or evolve on anything. So why should they ever bother to change?

I fast forward through all the “social” parts of the games and just watch the contests and who gets voted out at the end. The chatting at camera, the so called planning (that rarely comes to anything), the around the camp stuff, etc. is skipped.

Its fantastic that her fans took her advice in the context it was intended.

Ug this shit is just so damn tedious now. I mean seriously what does any of this accomplish? Went online and beat up someone today for words from 17 years ago. Congrats. Slow clap for proving whatever doing that didn’t accomplish except make a few people miserable for 17 year old words and a bunch of probable assholes…

Hey what do you know, that would have been a great addition to the article. Show some history of his shit. But that would have required effort. Can’t have that, especially when so many are willing to defend the minimum effort. The guy wrote about a video. He is paid to report. You would think watching the video would…

Answer this - today Dilbert guy pulls the video. A year from now someone mentions he is a racist. You go looking for it. You can’t find it but find this article. What do you actually know about what he said? Two half quotes and nothing else. That is not reporting, that is blogging. There is a difference and its an…

Your an idiot. Saying “give me the full story” is not defending anyone. He reported on the video so the minimum he should have done is watch the video. He clearly didn’t.

So I should watch the video instead of the guy paid to do the thing like watch the video and report on it. He chose to report on the video, the minimum requirement to do that is to watch it. He didn’t. Instead he blogged about it.

Yep, and if the context of blogging, this post is exactly that. And looking at the comments its clear that few understand the difference between reporting and blogging.

Yes this too belongs in the story. The guy digging into his tweets and other history and reporting on that too to show that this isn’t new behavior and instead an escalation of existing racism and white nationalism. He didn’t even bother to do that. Thanks for pointing that out.

The dude’s job is to watch the video and report on it. Not mine. If we have to watch it to learn more, then what is the point of the article existing? It should have just been a head line and a link.

You did more then all the reporters did. You watched it, you summarized it, you provide context. This is literally more then all the article writers did. Congratulations on doing more then the guy paid to do this did.

I want a reporter to report. That means warts and all. That means full quotes. That means when Dilbert guy pulls his video, we still have the core transcript of what he said and not the same half quotes that everyone used. Don’t excuse it because you don’t like the guy.

Explain - if Dilbert dude pulls the video, what is the record of what he said? Write now two half quotes that he can deny easily because everyone did a half assed job. If it had been a left winger saying this shit, it would have been paragraphs of quotes and everyone would think it was good. Because its a right…

Actually yes there is. What is to stop him from pulling the video? Then what? We currently would have no record of what he said besides two half quotes that everyone used. And I mean literally everyone used. Part of the reason to report is to get the warts and all of events, as a separate record, so even if the…

I expect more then literally re-writing every other article I read on this. Go look them up, you would be hard pressed to find a difference. If not going to add any value, just link to someone that already did.  You all really need to quit playing “are they on my team” before deciding if something is a good or not.…
