haha I'm surprised more of you guys aren't upset about this. Exclusive reviews help two groups of people: publishers and the outlets that run them. The one group they don't help is the group we're here to serve: readers. It's super gross.
Ugh, dont be such an entitled manchild!
And as for Arthur Gies's views about this, allow me to answer his complains and that other journalists with the words of a great man.
