Sadly, videogame journalism doesn't have many worldwide famous or even respected journalists. There are only a few visible heads in the industry and most of them stand out for the wrong reasons. The gaming press, specially in America, is really toxic and many of the journalists talk bad things of their colleagues, crtiticizing their close relationships with the biggest commercial companies.

One of them is Geoff Keighley, a canadian gaming journo who was the creator of one of the most infamous episodes of the media.

In 2012, Keighley hosted an episode of GTTV, a weekly gaming show made by the extinct videogame website GameTrailers. In that episode, the journalist held an interview with a developer of Halo 4, a game Geoff was reviewing at the time. The worst part is the fact that Keighley was sorrounded by Doritos and Mountain Dew products and a gigantography of the game itself, advertizing it at the same time he was making a review of it. That lack of integrity made Keighley a bad reputation with the consumers and other journos, feeding the disdain traditional Journalism have for the gaming one.

But not everything is bad for mister Keighley, he was able to fulfill his lifelong dream of making and "Academy Award of videogames", creating The Game Awards in 2014, the most famous gaming awards show after the closing of The Video Game Awards in 2013.
