They don’t care about any of that, they just want clicks. Modern journalism is more of a cesspool than ever before.

Games “journalists”

The thing is, he tweets too rarely for gaming sites to do anything else. The articles wouldn’t draw clicks if he tweeted ~daily. He’s totally right to be annoyed, but the system is what it is.

Let’s see how many of them end up respecting this, starting with this tweet lol

Every tweet from anyone even remotely related to gaming = a 300 word article that can generate views, SEO, and ad revenue. That’s all they care about.
If it helps, game journalism is like 80% AI with an editor for proofreading at this point anyway.

As someone who used to work in entertainment media, yes, they do have to write an article every time he tweets. It’s what their content manager will assign them, and they’ll request a title that makes it sound like he’s announcing a major update or a new game.
That’s what the media has become. It sucks.

Not to sound like a jerk, but the fact that this sub makes a Reddit post every time ConcernedApe tweets kinda makes us part of the problem as well.
I can’t really fault them for it? Its a job all the same and quite often in the journalism business you have to scrape together things to get those daily article deadlines met.

He’s a humble guy. I like him.
Hey OP, why is your only post this and it’s pretty old from CA?

Gamer journalists since then:
