MODERATORS
Traditional media likes to call "gamergate" to being called out for "access journalism". That's also why they took the uncivility of a vocal few to represent a larger movement that demanded more transparency in games journalism. Turns out, if you have a megaphone, you seldom want to share the power to use it.
