2015 and I still fall for this shit, god damn.

Holy shit this is golden

Mmh sauce

Holy *** this thing tourned out longer than I thought. Even if I don't agree on you, thanks at least for giving me a possiblity to say stuff.

If this is the way we perceive "real world" journalism, then, by your logic, it is of no use that they continue writing shit, no ? Might as well just literally give them money if we know "most likely" it's fake so they can have their livelyhood secured.

The term "likely" is the pivot in all this.

Journalism is based, yes. It lacks often information, yes, but sorry, if you forget that journalism is actually just people like us and that you should never assimilate blindly someone's opinion, then you're a moron. No matter how the odds are of journalism being "fake", even if you know its most "likely" true, you don't rely on it.

Journalism is not there for you to assimilate opinions they present to you,for they are never "likely" 100 % true, but to give you an opportunity to form your own by presenting aspects of a given topic. The presentation may be subjective, true, but it is your job to consider the objective elements from different sources to form your own vision of things.

The reason this "Quinnspiracy" is a deal to some of us is because of such people like Quinn, this "fake" aspect might become the general outlook on media.

Yes, there will always be false media, looking for profit and shaming people, and hell damned will I be if I never felt intro the trap of believing what was served to me at first glance because it fit my paradigm so well or because it was easy not to dig too deep into it. But it should not be the daily basis for journalism.

The deal is, if this becomes a standard adopted like yours, then we've lost, in all due respect, the integrity and credibility of the fifth estate. This happened to TV already, and tbh I didn't think it would happen to the internet because it offers such a vast array of opinions that would make opinion forming possible and silencing people impossible. Zoe Quinn might not be "the overlooming doom that kills or killed journalism's neutrality", but her example might show how favors, professional victimisation and silencing could become common practice in gaming journalism and overall in journalism later on.

TL;DR It's a cause worth fighting for, because I still believe that, despite the abundancy of fake journalism and ***ing drama this thing has created, there are still ways to form your opinion by gathering objective data from different sources. I'd rather be "butthurt" this one time by trying to get these people out of journalism that might still have good portions than accepting the constant butthurt of developers and SJWs trying to censor everything that doesn't fit into their vision of things on a daily basis.

Good thing 4chan started that colon cancer thing tho, so all butthurt ppl can get help. Maybe I'll go there too, but I doubt that their new colonoscope quite fits me. It's called the "White Knight Deluxe".

Hey, does no one notice that the screencapper and the storywriter are the same guy ?

"***es love to settle on my dick."

OP are you the spanish me ?
