While I believe no such breach occurred, I feel it is important for Kotaku readers who have questions to get clear answers.

There's no way for me to access that original list, but I can do the second best thing and consult their public Handbook of Journalism. Keep in mind that these represent the MINIMAL standards by which a proper journalist should be held to http://handbook.reuters.com/ Recently an indie dev named "Zoe Quinn" was accused of having a sexual relationship with a Kotaku writer for positive coverage. There's an interesting bit about that Whether or not Zoe actually slept with him for positive coverage is irrelevant. The fact remains that she did in fact maintain a sexual relationship that represents a clear conflict of interest http://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title=Integrity#Dealing-with-sources Under section "Integrity," it states as follows > We encourage staff to cultivate sources but also expect them to be conscious of the need to maintain a detachment from them. We should not cultivate or associate with sources on one side of an issue to a point where there are grounds to question whether the relationship has exceeded the bounds of proper, professional contact. While it is appropriate to entertain sources, including outside working hours, regularly spending substantial leisure time with them may raise a potential conflict or a perception of bias. A good measure of the propriety of the relationship is to ask whether you would be comfortable spending as much time with another source on a different side of the issue or your beat A sexual relationship does not represent a sufficient detachment from the people you're supposed to report on. It represents a blatant conflict of interest if you're to hold them accountable for wrong-doing in the industry. The fact that this oversight was allowed to occur at all is far more troubling than whether or not it was substantial (Continued) Anonymous 08/20/14(Wed)14:06:30 No.258849935 1 . 22258850035 >> P> > A romantic or family attachment with a news source or with a person or persons who might be the subject of a staff member's coverage should be disclosed to the appropriate manager. Stephen Totilo, a supervisor for Nathan Grayson, implied that Grayson did not disclose this relationship to him until after the controversy started. The very fact that his answer wasn't clear and transparent is also troubling. Disclosure should never sound ambiguous. Ambiguity alone is reasonable cause for suspicion https://twitter.com/stephentotilo/status/501818736480092160 Anonymous 08/20/14(Wed)14:07:36 No.258850035 >-258850149 >2258854267 258849935 Here are a few myths that l'd like to debunk. > Romantic relationships between reporters and industry figures are common, so therefore the relationship was still ethical Patently false for very obvious reasons. Just because something is common does not mean it is ethical. That's faulty logic that relies on norms instead of principle. The Reuters Handbook clearly points out this situation as problematic, no matter the industry or the context > Kotaku shouldn't be held to these standards If a news source is to maintain a certain reputation for journalistic integrity, they should be held to these minimal standards that, ideally, should cover other industries. Lowering ethical standards for "entertainment" purposes should not be an excuse for encouraging a conflict of interest when informing the public about certain games or industry developments If anything, this quite literally proves that Kotaku does not have journalistic integrity. Here are several other violations of journalistic standards regularly committed by Kotaku. Keep in mind that violating one represents a breach of MINIMAL ethical standards. Review copies are fine, but they should never be "limited edition" and most likely shouldn't have DLC that's not in the default product. Reviews should represent the most general version of the product out there, not an idealized and more expensive one http://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title-hdependence#Gifts and-entertainment http://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title-Independence#Travel-and-accommodation Anonymous 08/20/14(Wed)14:08:37 No.258850149 22258854267 P> > This is all just misogyny I think we know that's b-------, but don't encourage those claims through sexist or misogynist language. That doesn't help convince anyone who's on the fence To repeat one more time, whether or not Grayson gave positive coverage in exchange for sex is irrelevant. The fact is that this relationship would have represented a conflict of interest in any other industry, such as petroleum or defense contracting. I see no reason why "video games" should be held to an insultingly lower journalistic standard If enough people ask me to, Ill try to write a full-blown article on this. I just wouldn't know where to publish it. I might re-post this later today

The fact remains that she did in fact maintain a sexual relationship that represents a clear conflict of interest http://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title=Integrity#Dealing-with-sources Under section "Integrity," it states as follows > We encourage staff to cultivate sources but also expect them to be conscious of the need to maintain a detachment from them. We should not cultivate or associate with sources on one side of an issue to a point where there are grounds to question whether the relationship has exceeded the bounds of proper, professional contact. While it is appropriate to entertain sources, including outside working hours, regularly spending substantial leisure time with them may raise a potential conflict or a perception of bias. A good measure of the propriety of the relationship is to ask whether you would be comfortable spending as much time with another source on a different side of the issue or your beat A sexual relationship does not represent a sufficient detachment from the people you're supposed to report on. It represents a blatant conflict of interest if you're to hold them accountable for wrong-doing in the industry. The fact that this oversight was allowed to occur at all is far more troubling than whether or not it was substantial (Continued) Anonymous 08/20/14(Wed)14:06:30 No.258849935 1 . 22258850035 >> P> > A romantic or family attachment with a news source or with a person or persons who might be the subject of a staff member's coverage should be disclosed to the appropriate manager. Stephen Totilo, a supervisor for Nathan Grayson, implied that Grayson did not disclose this relationship to him until after the controversy started. The very fact that his answer wasn't clear and transparent is also troubling. Disclosure should never sound ambiguous. Ambiguity alone is reasonable cause for suspicion https://twitter.com/stephentotilo/status/501818736480092160 Anonymous 08/20/14(Wed)14:07:36 No.258850035 >-258850149 >2258854267 258849935 Here are a few myths that l'd like to debunk. > Romantic relationships between reporters and industry figures are common, so therefore the relationship was still ethical Patently false for very obvious reasons. Just because something is common does not mean it is ethical. That's faulty logic that relies on norms instead of principle. The Reuters Handbook clearly points out this situation as problematic, no matter the industry or the context > Kotaku shouldn't be held to these standards If a news source is to maintain a certain reputation for journalistic integrity, they should be held to these minimal standards that, ideally, should cover other industries. Lowering ethical standards for "entertainment" purposes should not be an excuse for encouraging a conflict of interest when informing the public about certain games or industry developments If anything, this quite literally proves that Kotaku does not have journalistic integrity. Here are several other violations of journalistic standards regularly committed by Kotaku. Keep in mind that violating one represents a breach of MINIMAL ethical standards. Review copies are fine, but they should never be "limited edition" and most likely shouldn't have DLC that's not in the default product. Reviews should represent the most general version of the product out there, not an idealized and more expensive one http://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title-hdependence#Gifts and-entertainment http://handbook.reuters.com/index.php?title-Independence#Travel-and-accommodation Anonymous 08/20/14(Wed)14:08:37 No.258850149 22258854267 P> > This is all just misogyny I think we know that's b-------, but don't encourage those claims through sexist or misogynist language. That doesn't help convince anyone who's on the fence To repeat one more time, whether or not Grayson gave positive coverage in exchange for sex is irrelevant. The fact is that this relationship would have represented a conflict of interest in any other industry, such as petroleum or defense contracting. I see no reason why "video games" should be held to an insultingly lower journalistic standard If enough people ask me to, Ill try to write a full-blown article on this. I just wouldn't know where to publish it. I might re-post this later today

Quinn subverts NeoGAF mod team

Regarding the Zoe Quinn issue Inbox x Fernando Ramirez 9:38 AM (59 minutes ago) Poor, is the best way to descri be the way the moderation is handling this situation. I'm extremely disappointed with this whole fiasco Let me begin with 1 single fact Neogaf is one of the most important gaming centric forums for westerns. People come here to learn and inform themselves about the industry tendencies, actors, etc When an issue like the Zoe Quinn "drama" begins, expect to come to this site and find a moderated discussion about the subject, hopefully with informed posters refuting/proving any claims made about the subject. The faster the truth comes to light the faster this issue can be addressed and/or ignored. Censorship is not and never will be the solution. While I understand that the personal life of the individual should not be part of the discussion for many reasons, completely blocking any form of discussion is counterproductive, since it only increases the chances for lies to spread and feeds the Streisand effect of a nasty situation. As with all topics, if the subject is difficult (in this case it is), it's the moderation's responsibility to keep it civilized and in this specific case, it's also their job to avoid any derail into related topics that touch sensitive information. Completely blocking this topic not only kills the possibility of having a valuable discussion about the serious issues on the industry (nepotism in this case) and it also makes me question the mindset and disposition of the moderation team to handle these kind of situations With all of this said, I hope the people responsible will re-evaluate their position and will work on a solution for this and future events. Or at least, that's what I expect from this site 10:38 AM (0 minutes ago) NeoGAF Support <support@neogaf.com> to Fernando The truth is that Zoe Quinn has used her abject feminine wiles to undermine the entire NeoGAF moderation team. Whatever her vagina touches, it corrupts, and absolute vagina corrupts like super powerfully. I come to you now anonymously, at great peril, empowering you to become a freedom fighter - a rebel, if you will- in the battle against Zoe Quinn. Spread the word. Launch your torpedo of truth into her thermal exhaust port and end her reign of terror over the indie video game community once and for all Good luck.
