WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE.
A reporter for Kotaku& #39;s caught lying to rape victims to publish details they were explicitly uncomfortable having published, and their response is "it& #39;s not our policy to edit articles we& #39;ve already published" before waiting 1/2 weeks to edit things out...
A reporter for Kotaku& #39;s caught lying to rape victims to publish details they were explicitly uncomfortable having published, and their response is "it& #39;s not our policy to edit articles we& #39;ve already published" before waiting 1/2 weeks to edit things out...
...and respect the people their reporting harmed. But they publish an opinion piece about how Final Fantasy VII& #39;s easy mode is too easy and gamers/Twitter users criticizing it is enough to get that edited the same day that it& #39;s published?
Why is the former group treated as safe to discount (and when part of your responsibility as a reporter protect the sources said reporting risks harming) where the latter is important enough to warrant an immediate response?
