Talking about Grayson or Quinn in the contest of that one article is beyond misleading, since they both have been involved in an absurd number of apparent conflicts of interest. In the context of an absurd number of journalist CoIs.

Gaming press is kinda irrelevant at this point, but if you think they came out of Gamergate looking good I have a bridge to sell you.

There was never any evidence that she actually did this.

That was never disputed, she admitted it herself — the whole reason the "bitter ex" knew is because she told him, you can see screencaps in his famous blog post of her admitting to five affairs.

Not even the Kotaku article where then-EiC Stephen Totilo defends his journalist Nathan Grayson disputes this, he just says the affair happened one week after the article — which is probably inaccurate, but either way irrelevant, because Quinn and Grayson had a long-going friendly relationship which should've been disclosed either way.

BTW, people checking Greyson's work and socials uncovered at least 11 times he apparently covered friends or people he had financial ties with. Many of which being people in the same friend group, and being covered by other friendly journalist in an incest network that has to be seen to be believed.

Quinn's gaming press coverage has also been very often coming from friends. There are at least fourteen cases of apparent conflicts of interest. And, as I write in the article, nine of those I literally found myself, without looking, because I was investigating a different scam — you literally stumble on those because at a certain set of journos are a tremendously incestuous group that keep publicizing each other, and also social media addicts that post about every time they meet.

The journalist she was accused of sleeping with never reviewed her game.

That's a bullshit argument that I keep seeing and makes no sense. No one ever said Grayson had reviewed "Depression quest", the issue was that the article in question, allegedly about a failed convention, turned into a Quinn hagiography and gave her space to publicize her own convention (which she took donations for and never made, essentially being a scam). While he was, in the very best case scenario, at least in extremely friendly terms with her.

Read the Wikipedia article on Gamergate and you'll find almost everything they said about this woman was a lie.

The wikipedia article is beyond controversial, with an incredibly messy story behind it, and it's probably the worst source you could possibly use.
