Literally don't care. Just because they're not completely disingenuous once every hundred and fifty articles doesn't mean they're deserving of hits.

Totally disagree with you, with this other quote from the same site, that I have read a few minutes ago.

"The issue here is the same of the so called new gun law in the US, they point the finger to anything that they dont understand or better yet what they want to sanatize from the public eyes view. Wich leaves to a point here, it's not the gun, playing a game or reading a book, seeing anime, reading manga that kills people. It's the people that kills other people! And that's a fact!! So to the reporters what they want to do, is sell an history, but does that history is full of facts, real facts!? NO, NOPE, only unrelated rubbish with a game that was hardly played. So in my logic those reporters are just a bunch of manipulative leechers of the facts, and therefore they shouldn't exercize the function of being a reporter. "

It's poor journalism alright, but it's conceived to sell an history that doesn't have any facts that holds one to another. It's just rubbish inside rubbish. And german journalism is not the #1 worst in the Europe.

I'm not sure if you're secretly agreeing with me or not. Kotaku is poor journalism at its finest and deserves nothing but contempt for it.

I'm not agreeing with you nor I'm agreeing, Kotaku is a website of web news, and off course is another sensancionalist web journal of the many that are inside the web. It just helped to spread that news of the main sensancionalist paper/web journal that writed the nonsense. Wich some of readers are players of FFXIV and one of them putted the warning in the forum with concern of the same and unjustly difamated game.

Notice: the smily is not to put a sarcastic tone on my reply, it's just there because the "unjustly difamated" phrase reminded me of a similar situation in the tv news, where the reporters of tv news and also from the journals tried to put a man in the jail because they wanted a scape goat for all the spreaded news that they delivered to, all the world i suppose. Where in fact he was totally inocent, just had been at the wrong hour and the wrong place where the murder happened.

True, but they are the ones repeating it just to get more hits. It's disgusting the direction that site has gone in the past couple of years.

At least Tim Rogers articles don't get posted as often anymore.
