CNN is a terrible example that is not at all neutral in this case. First of all, currently there is nothing on the main page of CNN about the conflict. That might change any second but kotaku has given more proportional coverage than CNN has and that’s sad on CNNs part but pretty much par for MSM. As Nathan pointed…

You’re completely ignoring the context of the situation. This is a human rights catastrophe, if the journalists are human they are qualified to speak up. Everyone is qualified to speak against human rights violations. If IGN were to devote a bunch of articles critising a football team for poor football management you…

Nathan as a journalist has the right to call out these streamers but most the rest of us don’t really have a leg to stand on.

Maybe, but they hate all the other mainstream gaming sites even more. Apperantly their comments section is the Breitbart of gaming journalism.

You mean you hope it won’t given that you seem to be against independent journalism. I think a lot of the writers that left deadspin are doing better than deadspin in it’s current state.

I applaud kotaku for taking this stance. I did not expect this. For so many years we have been brainwashed to ignore the atrocities committed by Israel, if we spoke up at all we would quickly be labeled anti-Semitic and silenced. This is despite ethno- religious states being a wholly un-american concept, at least as…

Im not a huge fan of Biden but I doubt it. Our foreign policy has been pretty consistently imperialistic no matter who is in the big chair.

Thanks! I'll look in to that, your explanation made a lot of sense to me.

First off, I love the insight you bring to the comments section.

Certainly didn’t mean to spread misinformation. I’m not an expert certainly. Biden made a big deal about it, is he also spreading misinformation? I know a president is not above doing that, besides misinformation implies misunderstanding not bad intent. Any comments section is literally full of misinformation.

No fan of Gina Carano but to not include even a small graphic of her character somewhere seems kinda disrespectful to the source material since it looks like it features most if not all other recurring characters. It’s not like they digitally replaced her on the show.

I resent this, there are plenty of millennial pinheads as well! Ok maybe not plenty but.... We exist!

Also why are you bringing up Take Two now? Your arguments were clearly about taking from corporations in general not just take two. The example you brought up doesn't even compare. Stealing a CEOs car is stealing from an individual and doesn't benefit anyone but the thief. In the articles case rockstar didn't actually…

All corporations (and consumers to a lesser extent) in America benefit from American Imperialism but I think that’s beyond the scope of this discussion, but it’s not that hard to prove with a little research.

When did I say that's okay?  It's just not as bad as exploiting latin american countries for resources, using tax loopholes to not pay your fair share and silencing human rights activists. Saying two wrongs don't make a right supports a false equivalency.

Yeah, misleading title for sure. It seems like the assumption is take two won't bother suing in such a small almost meaningless case, but obviously that's a huge assumption.

They didn't really win an appeal. He just made a counter claim and they have to respect that unless rockstar takes it to court. His counter claim may be totally baseless but they would still restore it until it ends up in court. At least that's how I read the article.

Then don't. Will you be personally negatively affected if rockstar was slighted? Probably not. They have all the money to hire lawyers to fight for them anyhow. If they still lose its on them.

A site about consumer electronics that typically sides with the consumers who are reading it? Consider myself shocked.

Pretty important semantics. Many don’t have a lot of respect for IP as it is right now because it’s literally stopping poor countries from producing the Covid vaccine.
