Internet Reality (Score 1)

The most interesting thing to come of this whole thing is that now -- only a day after the revelation -- people all over the Internet take the rumors as absolute truth. Now, even if it comes to light that Mr. Gerstmann was fired for killing children or eating kittens, since so many of the denizens of the 'net have latched onto the rumors as reality, they have essentially made their perceived reality THE accepted reality simply by force of numbers.

As a result, there's nothing but accusations and angry villagers ahead for Gamespot and Eidos.
