With recent news surrounding Ubisoft and Star Wars Outlaws, once again we examine how the world of reviews, previews, and insider access are plagued with issues. Famous creators and outlets hiding disclosure, defending bribes, and having their opinions bought out, as well as a culture surrounding the thin line between journalists and content creators when it comes to accountability and what influences them and the content they create.

Thank you for watching.
