View submission: Quinnspiracy Theory: In-N-Out Edition
We had another scandal with the dewritoesgate scandal. A writer called out a few people when Geoff Keighley had a video of him with doritoes and halo in the backgrounds. An interview that had nothing to do with either products. Lauren wainwright, a reviewer filed libel and got said writer to step down. Now Lauren Wainwright, as it turned out was working for Square Enix as well as given them praise in articles as a reviewer/game journo.
I thought this incident would be the the event that would shake up gaming journalism.
Now here we are 2 years later after dewritoes gate. Honestly I just want someone to come clean, I'm tired of people brushing this under the rug and I'm especially tired of this gaming clique between writers and game devs.

Indie game devs.
It's always indie game devs on social media acting pompously.
Some of these people are indie devs because no company would hire someone with their self-important attitudes or attached drama.

No one is going to come clean voluntarily. People like Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Rebecca Watson, and Adria Richards along with sites like Jezebel.com, Feministing.com, EveryDayFeminism.com, and SkepChick.org have morphed 3rd wave feminism into an insane cult.
