Honestly, it's all pathetic. The guy was absolutely correct in every way.. these journalists pander to game companies, pander to publishers and manufacturers, in order to get free stuff .. it's happened forever .. and to be called out on it suddenly means threatening to sue for libel? Pathetic.

well many game journos aren't on tv. and geoff lol what a silly canadian name is a tv celeberity. a lot of them are 'forced' to endorse shit. ms and halo and mt dew and dorittos are running a promotion for the new halo... and he was prolly paid to promote it since gametrailers is THE gaming site in the world.
I get what the article was saying but geoff is no longer a game journalist, he's a game journalist / celebrity / endorser. he's pretty much the face of gametrailers and they're ran by mtv thing (the bigger company) and they do state that they're owned by another company when they review a game that had its hands in that company. so it's all cool in my books.
no one is hating on brad pitt for promoting channel 05  even though he's totally gay for doing that. 
but this bs.  guy lost his job cause one girl got all upset. not to be mean or anything but that bitch is prolly on her period or she clearly is a dumb cunt. to let it go this far for a guy to lose his job... she's fucking evil stupid bitch. she's a serious bitch. like black girl on reality tv bitch. OH NO YOU DIDN'T YOU HOE! *rips hair extensions out* could've just said no it's ok let him keep his job. i overreacted the article only says that people might think i'm corrupt but im not really. it didn't imply anything. just stated a view of current game journo life. and it sort of is correct. but nope. she let a guy lose his job because she's a dumb cunt.
I really dislike her. 
but it's serious lol. can't wait to see where it goes. pretty much everyone out there is on the side of the guy who lost his job and people will start gunning for that slut in no time.

She's pretty much fucked, IMO.
Demonstrated her stupidity and/or guilt by trying to hopelessly covering her trails but I'm sure plenty of people already backed/saved her stuff up.
I also can't wait to see euroderp's pathetic response to all of this.

Gaming "journalism" really is a joke, it has nothing to do with proper journalism.

Hello, I am now a gaming journalist because I know how to spell my own name, own a keyboard that might or might not be connected to a computer, have an internet connection and an opinion about a game.
HEAR ME ROAR!!!
