To be fair, a lot of these 'journalists' don't. Alexander must have been beat up by some nerds or something, but aside from her they all seem to think themselves greater than they actually are. I'm not certain the whole glut of 'Gamers are dead' articles that launched around the same time were all misinterpreted either as a result of watching these people at play. I think GG was before that article, back when it was still hunting down corruption or whatever, but I may be mistaken.
