Line 898:

:::::If GG never happened, all of the allegations made by the ex would fail to be on WP because they are clear BLP violations. The ''only'' allegation that matters for the purposes of GG, and thus nullifying the BLP aspect, is that she slept with Grayson ''explicitly'' for getting positive press cover, not that this was cheating on her ex. Whether she cheated on her ex has zero relevance for GG and remains a BLP problem to include directly. That said a smart reader can read between the lines and come to their own conclusion what actually happened, but we cannot outright say that. --[[User:Masem|M<font size="-3">ASEM</font>]] ([[User Talk:Masem|t]]) 04:41, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

::::::Numerous reliable sources mention the allegation was about her cheating on him with Grayson, among others: [http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/09/12/with-gamergate-the-video-game-industrys-growing-pains-go-viral/] [http://www.theverge.com/2014/8/27/6075179/anita-sarkeesian-says-she-was-driven-out-of-house-by-threats] [http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/08/22/gaming-misogyny-gets-infinite-lives-zoe-quinn-virtual-rape-and-sexism.html] [http://www.vox.com/2014/9/6/6111065/gamergate-explained-everybody-fighting] [http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/sep/12/zoe-quinn-gamergate-online-hate-mobs-depression-quest] [http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2014/09/24/349835297/-gamergate-controversy-fuels-debate-on-women-and-video-games]. Add that to the four sources mentioning "Five guy burgers and fries" and that is quite a few reliable sources talking about the allegations of cheating. Beating around the bush on the nature of the relationship only serves to mislead readers when plenty of reliable sources aren't so coy.--[[User:The Devil's Advocate|<font color="vermillion">'''The Devil's Advocate'''</font>]] _{[[User talk:The Devil's Advocate|<font color="burntorange">tlk.</font>]] [[Special:Contributions/The Devil's Advocate|<font color="red">cntrb.</font>]]} 16:57, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

:::::::Zoe Quinn's motivations, whether she did something FOR something else, is irrelevant. A journalist failed to disclose a close relationship with someone he was writing about and giving positive to. This is all that matters here.
