Comment and suggestions for site www.deepfreeze.it — because Disqus is too mainstream

I propose adding another entry on Stephen Totilo's profile.

As the EiC of Kotaku, he has the duty of maintaining the ethical standards on his website - and this goes in double since he has an actual journalism degree.

However, Kotaku has no published ethics policy to be held accountable by, which makes it easy to bend the unseen rules whenever its convenient.

Totilo has defended this stance on more than one occasion, such as here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/37madz/according_to_drew_magary_moral_at_gawker_is/cro3nvk

I also remember him mentioning before that he wanted to avoid people looking for "gotchas", but I forgot where he said that (perhaps it was at the TB interview - hopefully anons can help).

I'm unsure on the emblem this should be featured at, but at the very least, I'd say it is worth including it as a Trivia if nothing else.

Sorry for not posting an archived version, but archive.is is not working right now.

I propose that we also add another entry for "GTA taught me to drive" article:

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:Gdnyg3CwPs4J:kotaku.com/grand-theft-auto-taught-me-to-drive-503781868+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=il

Readers should have serious misgivings about a news site with an EiC who doesn't try to verify information sent to him by strangers before publishing it.

I agree, this is important. And EiC shouldn't just listen and believe to whatever drivel (especially something as ludicrous as the claims from the e-mail he got) and turn it into a story.

Incidentally, here is the archived link for the OP I posted before:

I also took the liberty of making an archived version of the GTA article you posted since I'm unsure how reliable Google´s webcache is:

Hey, Bonegolem, can you weight in on this?

Sorry about the delay.

Totilo has an entry for that article.

The bit about the ethics policy is interesting, maybe worth a trivia entry.
