A sad day for gaming journalism

On Friday, we received some sad news. Game Informer announced that it was ceasing operations after 33 years.

It's certainly no secret that the journalism industry has been on a rocky road, but this news still stings. The world needs more quality journalism outlets, not fewer.

I hope that everyone affected by the closure finds something new quickly. I certainly know how difficult it can be when you are scrambling for a new job after an unexpected job loss.

Moments like Friday also put things into perspective for me. As someone who started a new digital magazine, I know how challenging the landscape is. I know that there is a lot of hard work that needs to be done, but I want to help be a positive change in the journalism world. There are so many great journalists out there. I implore you to support them and the wonderful work that they produce. A world without quality journalism is one that we don't want to live in.
