Facts? Lol. Quick to carry on the witch hunt I see. It's apparent you also did your due diligence in fact checking as well

It's not right to single any individual out for a game that was built by a team.

"Allie Rose-Marie Leost, who worked for EA’s motion-capture labs in Vancouver, saw vicious harassment on Twitter and other websites today, most often from people who blamed her for Andromeda’s awkward facial animations. The harassment appears to have been primarily triggered by a vile blog post at Ralph Retort, a right-wing, GamerGate-tied website, that claimed Leost was the lead facial animator on Andromeda. That website also accused her of performing sexual acts to get her job at EA.
As often happens with these internet witch-hunts, the harassment campaign against Leost was based on false information. BioWare today released a statement clarifying that she was not, in fact, a lead animator on Mass Effect: Andromeda. (There has been some confusion over whether Leost’s social media posts indicated that she was a lead, but given that she worked at EA Labs and not at the Andromeda team’s offices in Montreal, it’s clear that’s not the case.)"
And on that note, I'll add that you're part of today's problems: quick to crucify without the insight to double check your "facts". Did you even bother corroborating this story from another source?

Sorry but she listed herself as the lead facial animator on Twitter and Facebook so the facts were correct at the time based on her own words.
The rest of Kotaku's opinion about harassment is irrelevant and is just Kotaku being Kotaku.

It doesn't matter what she listed herself as and it doesn't make that fact. I could put "president of the United States" on my Twitter account but does that make it any more true? Bio ware themselves stated that she's not the lead animator. It's right there in my post.
