One of the main reasons why Nintendo Directs and Iwata Asks were introduced was the constant misrepresentation of the most basic informations in the "professional videogame journalism". Something to keep in mind is that bribery for great coverage is a very common thing, to make things worse some magazines and sites are part of big conglomerates, with ties to publishers and even some console manufacturers. Polygon for example is known for having ties with Microsoft. And about bias, the whole Wii and DS generation was a constant bad-mouthing contest for the whole generation, and especially DS was almost hidden when it comes to the coverage compared to its actual relevance in the market.
