A friend of mine had a great blog called "Game Journalists are Incompetent Fuckwits", where he listed all the stupidity that these so-called "journalists" were spouting. Sadly, it seems he shut it down.

These people are not even close to be journalists, nor do they have any ethics.
They are not better than the average user you'll find on any game related forum or community, with the exception that they mostly state their real name, thus don't spout out vulgarities too easily.
Their only job is to babble all the latest rumor and add their own speculations for the next "journalist" to post it as factoid.

It's basically a circle jerk, where everyone is holding the dick of another one.
And very often, there are a few fat, corporate dicks in it as well.

These sites that I mentioned wanted it to become this type of discussion where neutral people like KEN say I DONT CARE, I DONT EVEN THINK ITS A BIG DEAL or anti-gg like Wu and Sarkeesian spouting GAMERS ARE MISOGYNISTS GAMERS ARE TERRORISTS. thats what a media spin is, that was the point of the GAMERS ARE DEAD articles that popped up and got reported everywhere immediately after the Quinn thing got exposed.
you provided a youtube link, a twitter link and a blog post.  Where's the mainstream media links?  No one outside a slight handful of people that probably care a little too much about this non-issue give a fuck dude.
Ken you're just disagreeing to disagree. I'm done. Just gonna leave this here to refute you one last time

Does Roc actually think that people give a shit about gaming or is he trolling? I play games and I have no idea what this 'gamergate' is and even after all the links Roc has shared it looks like a non issue for anyone with any social skills ( I didn't look at any of the links because again, I don't care). 99% of the population doesn't know and if they did they wouldn't care.

It did get into mainstream "news" for a brief moment of time when it first kicked up, but yeah, most normal people (and hell, most gamers) don't give a shit.

I'd get worked up about that Law and Order episode if TV didn't have ridiculous ideas when it came to video games or computers in general. I saw a SVU episode a couple months ago essentially about Second Life where the 20 year old college girl got kidnapped by a patron of her online pedophile strip club she ran in the game. You know, like people do.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamergate_controversy
Gamergate is a controversy regarding sexism in video game culture. It garnered significant public attention after August 2014 when several women within the video game industry, primarily game developers Zoe Quinn and Brianna Wu and feminist cultural critic Anita Sarkeesian, were subjected to a sustained campaign of misogynistic attacks.

It's funny cause the two moronic sides aren't even arguing about the same thing. The tumblr side is all about misogyny in video games and harassment on fucking Twitter against the above no-name people, whereas the 4chan people are all about "journalistic integrity in game journalism", about which, who gives a shit?
