There is plenty of proof. He works with stocks every day, he talks about stocks every day. Why wouldn't he own stock in the channel that hosts his show? His entire career and lifestyle indicates he owns stock. I've already proved he's received compensation when he accepted games from publishers. Games he received directly due to the fact he hosted the show on GT. I can direct you to a tweet where he flat out lied about Viacom selling GT. Sure he tweeted he got bad info later from a disgruntled employee but it doesn't change the fact that he didn't double check before he blasted a blatant lie all over the net as if it was the truth. I've already proved he's gotten compensation and I've proved he's lied before. I already asked him the question http://forums.gametrailers.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1330968&p=38409004#p38409004 because unlike you I'm not afraid of the truth.

No all you've done is made a fool out of yourself.  People don't buy stock of IGN ang GT.  They can't, they would have to buy stock of their parent companies.  He probably owns stock of viacom but thats not the same as owning stock in GT.  GT was sold off long before he got his show, so its extremely unlikely he was offered any part of the company.  Receiving games from people unaffiliated from GT does not prove he received compensation from GT.  That just stupid to think it does. He had relationships in the industry before he had his show on GT and was likely already receiving free games.  Even if he made those connections thanks to GT, that still does not equte to GT compensating him.  They did not give him anything.   As for him being wrong about GT being sold, its not much of a lie if you believe it, its called a mistake.  One he openly admitted too.   

I doubt your question will get picked up but I hope it does.  Either way I'm done, talking past each other does no one any good.


Any LLC has stock. You can get stock in a subsidiary without needing to get it from its parent company. Just because it's not publically traded doesn't mean there is no stock. It is just handed out by the company. The only fool here is you since you've shown you have no idea how stocks and corporations work and you have no idea what qualifies as compensation.  It's just stupid to believe he's received no compensation. Even if you believe he does it for fame and popularity that still qualifies as compensation. Since you struggle with what that means I suggest you read this. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/compensation You cannot say or even prove he got nothing especially when you said earlier that he did get something even if it wasn't money. As far as the lie goes believing it doesn't make it less of a lie. It just makes him deluded. Especially since all he had to do was literally talk to one other person at the company to find out it wasn't true. Yes it was a mistake, a mistake that he spread a lie, it doesn't make it less of a lie and it doesn't change the fact that he did lie. If you're tired of talking past each other maybe you should start listening instead of deluding yourself. I've been listening to you, the problem is you've been wrong and upset and instead of listening and accepting reality you ignore it and delude yourself and talk past me. If he does answer the question and the answer is yes which I know it will be then you owe me an apology. It doesn't change the fact that he receives a form compensation for what he does. It doesn't matter if its stock options or games or connections from third parties or simply fame and attention. He gets compensation, He wouldn't be doing it if he wasn't.
