Issues and apology and retract the article
Summary
Russ Pitts , editor of the relaunched Escapist Magazine writes and article about ethics in games journalism. Gets harassed by Zoe Quin and her twitter mob for writing about all the sides of the argument and falls for the age old trick in thinking apologizing to these people will help at all.
I did have a chuckle at his "Of course you think this is all about you" tweet he sent to Zoe Quin, before he lost his balls and deleted everything :/
Just goes to show, ethics in game journalism will never be allowed to be discussed because of how good these "journalists" and twitter mobs etc are at salting the earth around it.
