I have not been paying attention to any of the media's outlooks on the Wii U you describe so I cannot talk of that outlook other than say I believee it will be a fair picture  of the people running the particular articles. A fair critique seems better than just trying to avoid annoying people and  just saying mostly complimentary things. As well, I do believe this site has a conspiracy theory gone wrong on the media. It is not a single minded animal with an agenda. Objectivity is a hard thing to create, if it is even possible, so I do not see the trouble. The trouble is trying to push off opinions you do not like and not being open minded that more than one company can and does create greatness and failures.

No, the trouble is some of the media deliberately spinning negativity for their own agenda; whether that be so that they can get more hits to their websites/articles (in the case of Eurogamer) or because they show bias against Nintendo (in the case of Pachter).  I never said every reporter/writer made the media "a single minded animal with an agenda", but rather, that there is some blame to go around regarding this as per the examples I gave, which you weren't even familiar with.  

Again, you're confusing fanboys who are not open minded about criticism with people like me who believe the positives should be acknowledged along with the negatives.  Big difference.
