Imagine if, for thirty years, the young men and women of the United Emirates worked very hard to take money from tourists for hot, hot sex. There were countless stories about how eager they were to get money and give sex. Everyone just basically knew "that's how it was" over there. Every once in a while someone on their Olympic team would make national news for not taking money for sex, but it was kinda rare. It was notable.
Well, if a tourist shows up this summer and hands $250 to the first person he sees, that person shouldn't be completely outraged that the tourist thought they were a whore.
Game journalists are whores. As a group they lack lack professionalism. There's been, what, maybe a dozen examples in the field of people who take their jobs seriously. They're more groupies than journalists. If you ask a groupie if he'd like to play in Metallica, the groupie would instantlr agree. If Styx asked Hunter S. Thompson if he wante to join the band, he would not have accepted. (I know that is a bad example as Hunter S. Thompson wasn't really a music critic, but whatever.)
It's really funny that someone involved with Penny Arcade has a problem with how things are.
