Hello, everybody, and welcome to the latest episode of Consolidation Watch - a show where we puff out our proverbial chests and celebrate all of the excellent acquisitions that mega-corporations have completed recently! This week, we've got a doozy for ya' from the world of games media, where IGN successfully ate up the Gamer Network, home of mainstays like GamesIndustry.biz and Rock Paper Shotgun!
Clearly this is all for the best, and won't in any way damage the media landscape at large by winnowing down the diversity of content on the internet until we're left with one voice and one opinion, communicated through the broken language of AI and overseen by the editorial integrity of shareholders. So join us as we celebrate this milestone and don't think or talk critically about what it means at all.
Please, enjoy.
