No Cartridge 150: On Journalism and People
Today, I'm talking about issues of sexual violence and games reporting stemming from the recent issues surrounding Cecilia D'Anastasio's reporting of Nathalie Lawhead's report of rape by Jeremy Soule. Trigger warnings on this one for sexual violence. For relevant context I won't go into fully out of respect for Nathalie, here are links:
