If its an article he posts he usually has a good source of info unless he states its an opinion
If its a Twitter post or something brought up on his podcast its 99% a guess on his part and he is usually not good at guessing

He's an xbox shill who will do everything in his power to discredit anything that isn't xbox related. He has no integrity as a journalist.

Not defending this guy, but who could everyone agree on as being an acceptable source for anything outside the company themselves?

If we were to cut those threads, we should probably cut the other "content creator / journalist" related threads. Between random "drama" and information that's not solid it's all over the place.

But he's not being posted as that. He's being posted as a source of information that some take as fact.
You might not like him or discussions about him but as soon as you ask the mods to enforce a ban on him or related discussions you are putting GAF on a slippery slope to banning all sorts of sources and discussions leading to more arguments and moderation around that.
Just deal with it.

He is an important person. He has a blue check mark by his x handle. His opinions mean more than your average Joe. He's connected to the induthtry.
lmao somebody is literally suggesting what I've just warned about
Oh yeah, I'm sure the mass ravings of Gaffers will be a great judge to what journalists work we should be able to cite.
Good lord.

I propose a new feature. You select specific words and the system auto ignores all current and future threads that have those words in the subject.
They won't do that because they WANT to get angry about it. A lot of people seem to log onto GAF daily to find something to get angry about.

Yeah, I know. Engagement > anything else.

Why on earth would you? He's a source of great drama, enraging fanboys on all sides variously, and driving traffic to the site.

That's the comment section.
Because we're all babies and need to be told what to think, right?

Please don't ban him.
I enjoy the meltdowns, and also the fact thatTopher is forced to follow him. That's some sweet sweet schadenfreude I would be missing out on.
You should all be thanking me for bringing Jez to GAF as an endless source of entertainment. Without me, you would never know what a real life titan looks like.

I know what you mean here, but he IS a journalist, unfortunately. That's the entire problem.

If there is a Jez Corden thread on the front page, simple, don't make a new one.

But what if he tweets again? How will we know?
I'm curious to know who's forcing everyone who doesn't like discussing Corden's views to take part in these threads? Who's got a gun to your head?
You should call the cops when whoever that is sleeps or whatever and say there's a guy here who holds a gun to my head and forces me to read and comment on certain threads on a games forum.

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
How about if he has real leaks which he does sometimes we discuss the leaks instead of him?
He's obnoxious and he's not worth talking about, but he gets info... we don't need a thread on every dumb tweet he makes nor do we really need threads on his dumb opinions.
I'm not about blacklisting things but this forum community could do better about threads in general, tend to have the same topic in 3 different forms on the front page often. Like one interview becomes 5 threads.

As long as its stated in the title, its easy enough to ignore. It's what I typically do. People here seem to enjoy him though since those threads seem to get many replies.
