I'm probably biased, but I've been going to Kotaku for about 1 1/2 years daily for news, and I fail to see how it's horrid journalism. Granted, their parent company was the downright scummy and disgusting Gawker, but thankfully they're no longer owned by them, and I've never seen them so much as really mention Gawker, or support them in any way. I doubt the journalists there approved of anything Gawker did, going off of the sides of them I've seen. Then there was the whole gamergate shitstorm, and I just don't know enough about it to form a solid opinion. Really, it's something I do need to do some research on, because I wasn't really paying attention when it happened, and the aftereffects are still here, but I do know that Nathan Grayson dated Zoey Quinn, and anytime GG is mentioned in an article, they put that disclaimer up in bold at the bottom. I feel mostly that Kotaku might have had a much poorer background than when I joined in, especially given that slander campaigns even came up against Patricia Hernadez, falsely claiming and fabricating articles she didn't even write with ridiculous premises. I think it's largely a hate bandwagon that everyone hops on just because, even if they've never visited or read any articles there. If you can show elsewise, I'm more than willing to listen, however, and change my view.
