Do they have to be journalists to look into something that is affecting the trust of their viewers?

Just like Gamers Nexus explained in their video, you can not trust the coverage of whatever Nvidia is pushing this way. You furthermore can not know what they might be pushing elsewhere, so you have to mistrust all Nvidia coverage.

IMHO that sucks and if Gamers Nexus wants to investigate, why shouldn't they?

The same reason I’d be uninterested in reading that the Daily Mail wants to investigate something but interested if NYT wanted to.

I have faith in one to deliver useful investigations and not the other.

> After NVIDIA's huge breach of trust that we covered, we are officially opening an investigation and deep-dive into more of NVIDIA's shady business tactics

Is mostly waffling that could have applied to anything that nvidia did in the last 5 years

Has Gamer Nexus produced shoddy work in the past? The comparison feels lazy.

I’m more than happy to read a short sellers investigative piece, for example. You don’t need to be journalists to produce good work backed by facts.

They are just a linus tech tips bootlicker who thinks that there exists some mystical high standard journalism. You could find plenty of shoddy work from sites they consider good.
