Screen Rant, The Gamer, Collider, And CBR Parent Company Threatens Journalist Who Researched Into Google Algorithm Bias For Thei...
Valnet, the parent company of ScreenRant, CBR, Collider, and The Gamer, are becoming well-known for their censorship and agenda transcending any news they produce.
All of them. Literally 100%.
Even without official policy to bias them, each of the journalists participate in access journalism, biasing them.
Then on top of that, each of the journalists also are individually corrupt and normally have vested fiscal or political interests in the things they cover.
IGN has been known to take bribes since the 90s. Dan Stapleton can rot in hell.
Right-- but has IGN paid google to position itself as an influencer to get those bribes?
Inquiring minds want to know!
Link is Fandom Pulse's coverage of Valnet threatening a an (actual) journalist who's dug into their (paid?) promotion within Google's algorithm.
In other news, clown world remains fake and gay.
The author in the screen shot uses words like ,"seems to come up more often", and then wonders why they have legal woes. IF there is an issue, which I am not convinced, they didn't do a very good job selling it. Due to their half ass language, they left themselves open to this legality they're unhappy about.
The complaint is that Screen Rant is using the method of using a whole lot of articles to be seen. But, that only makes sense. There is a whole lot of media out there. Most of us don't give a damn about most of the media out there. They have to cover the bases. What a stupid complaint.
Wait, isn't the complaint that Valnet (and possibly other companies) are paying Google for visibility on their search engine?
I read what is posted. My takeaway is the author doesn't like the method of mass producing articles to hit SEO. I don't see that as an issue, do you?
Edit: I'd like to point out the articles are written in am intentional, click HERE for this bit of info, them in that article clicked HERE for this hot of info format.
It was written to confuse intentionally
Not nearly as big an issue as paying for search engine visibility which was my take away.
I edited my previous comment to point out that the author chose to put all the information in different places. Screen Rant isn't paying. His complaint about screen rant is they're producing so many articles to hit SEO he as a solo can't compete. That's not paying for screen time. Above I called it hitting all the topics because someone cares about something, and there's so much media.
If you reread the article, notice how short it is? Because all the information requires you to click to read another article. Doesn't that mean this author is also manipulating SEO while complaining about it? I had to read 4 articles to understand his complaint, and declined a pdf download.
Ok, I think I understand the confusion. You are correct that there is no direct proof of Valnet paying for visibility for any of its subsidiaries (screenrant). It is heavily implied when the pieces are put together, and I instantly assumed it was the obvious conclusion based on the circumstances.
Valnet has threatened legal action over a series of articles and social media posts. The threat itself is suspicious. If all they were doing is spamming articles, what would it matter for some internet journo to point it out? But if there is money changing hands behind the scenes then the threat makes much more sense.
I think the legal action is appropriate based on what they allow their staff to say. My example of Picard is really a good example. It was torn to shreds as woke bullshit. This campaign against them tarnished their image.
Games journalism cannot exist without "access" from game companies. Access is a bribe. Games journalism cannot exist without bribery.
Imo youtubers like Synthetic Man who are completely exiled from the professional industry and pay for all their own games are the only honest reviewers.
The original mission of Gamergate was a retarded idea born from millennials who dared to apply the maudlin propaganda they heard about journalists to the real world, but at least it kickstarted a bunch of good developments.
All the more reason to go to smaller news outlets to get a credible/* view on a situation within any political field.
The hegemonic elite will continue to scrub all records of their wrongdoings and have government policy rewrite what is permissible at the expense of those earning the actual bucks which props the whole thing up.
Sure everyone can be bought off to some degree, but a whole system of it which brags about it is not why people died for us to have this reality.
/*Incredulous I know!
I actually read screen rant. I have no idea what the screen shot is on about. I'm OOTL why X posts matter to screen rant. Screen Rant was willing to print how shitty the woke bullshit made Picard until season 3. So what nonsense is that man going on about? It was so bad there were petitions to make it noncanon. Then Riker directed season 3, and it's like a TNG movie. I watched season 3 without the bullshit before it.
Nothing screen rant wrote about Picard before season 3 matches this screen shot. You can go see for yourselves.
No idea why we need corporate websites when youtube (and alternatives) are perfectly good for publishing game reviews
We obviously don’t need corporate gaming websites, which is why their viewership and influence on consumer behavior have both cratered.
The ongoing problem is that other segments of the industry - notably, developers and studios - continue to operate as if corporate media were still some meaningful guiding star and not obvious propaganda. It doesn’t matter how hard we ignore or mock media shills when they’re still the ones given power to manufacture consensus via shit like metacritic. Leftist devs are literally pointing to the positive media coverage that they engineered for themselves in order to deflect from poor sales, and Blackrock-infused corporations are still buying the extra-market excuses.
None of this requires a formal conspiracy. Leftists are basically ideological sleeper agents everywhere they exist. Their first duty is always the revolution. They have been programmed to leverage whatever positions of power and influence they occupy in order to forward their cause, actual responsibilities be damned.
It’s falling apart over time. Slowly but surely, the worm is turning, but their are naturally still efforts by leftists to prevent the “invisible hand” from crushing their retarded ideology. Gamers Are Dead was a big one. Now we have the attempts to prop up an obsolete legacy media industry.
But victory isn’t exactly victory if it takes 20 years. How long can the market stay irrational aka woke? Long enough to represent the balance of my fucking life, apparently.
I suspect we are stuck with it until millenials age into irrelevance. Zoomers aren't having any of it and alpha boys are pretty much hitler youth.
In hindsight the gay commies advance their tech tree and unlocked the win condition of cultural takeover that nobody other than them even realized was possible, and they almost got it. It will take decades to wind down their subversion just like it took decades to ramp up.
The only real outstanding issue is can White population decline be reversed, or has enough damage been done to permanently make the glory of the world less than what it was, turning the spiral another degree toward eventual human extinction?
Fuck all game urinalists. They hate us anyway. I hope they all get fired and the publications get closed down because we don’t need them anymore. Most AAA slop is all the same chasing whatever trend is popular two years too late. Meanwhile these soy goblins perform fellatio on any company that puts in DIE main characters no one wants while shitting on games they don’t like. Have fun working at Amazon packaging up copies of Stellar Blade while you seethe asshole.
