I mean, Kotaku didnt have the best journalistic integrity track record to begin with, and the EIC approves their articles, so…
50 guides a week sounds ridiculous, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Kotaku authors were already doing this.
EDIT:
Glennon also announced her resignation on Twitter, writing, “I’ve resigned from Kotaku and Jim Spanfeller is an herb.”
Also, maybe don’t immediately publicly disparage your boss after resigning because they made a choice you didnt agree with?
Jim Spanfeller is an herb
What does this even mean? And shouldn’t it be a herb? (Not trying to correct you on it, I know you’re just quoting, but I can’t figure out how or why you would say an herb.)
A/an before a word is dependant on how the subsequent word is pronounced, not spelled. So for that sentence, the implication is that it’s pronounced closer to “erb”, thus “an” to precede instead of “a”. Another example that’s a bit counterintuitive is “one” being pronounced like “won”, so you’d get “a one time thing” rather than “an one time thing”.
I’m aware of when to use “a” versus “an”, but I wasn’t aware that Americans don’t pronounce the “h”! It makes a lot more sense now, thanks!
…well, a little bit more sense, anyway - I’m still not sure what calling someone “a herb” actually means…
They seem to be pivoting because all of their sites views are tanking. I don’t really know why but maybe because they haven’t changed and people got bored? I only really read kotaku when it shows up here.
Kotaku hasn’t been known for journalistic integrity for years. I’m honestly surprised and disappointed it took this long for their views to tank
