What always struck
me as odd was the bold, unrelenting and highly calculated villainization
of Gamer Gate from the Media. Redirected in it's infancy market
researchers at Kotaku and parent company Gawker Media Group
were quick to spin it into their favor
by pinning the term misogynist to any mention of Gamer Gate. The
initial uproar was about a journalist from Kotaku giving preferential treatment in the form of positive reviews to a game
developer that they were sleeping with. Gawker Media's superimposed bias presented as news is an irresponsible exploitation of psychological sociology.
