the return of Gamergate

Really?

I feel like a perpetually online person, but maybe not as much as I think? I missed this one, but I also don't spend a lot of time on 4chan these days either.

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.
