Hello! My name is Brad Glasgow and I take pride in being an old-school journalist. The world of online writing is filled with alternative voices, written by underpaid and often unpaid "tech culture" writers looking to make their big break. They write with an agenda, because the site that publishes them wants to build their brand in a certain style. They forego long held journalistic principles in an attempt to appeal to whatever market their editors are trying to sell to their advertisers at the time.How can I make it in this competitive world of a million writers all pushing out the same content? By being different. That means upholding basic journalistic principles. When I write about a topic I consider the alternative. When I write about people I attempt to get their side of the story. I look at data. I trust that the reader is intelligent enough to be able to interpret what I write without adding my opinion into everything."Original articles with unique content" has been my mantra since day one. When the press covered a fault-ridden cyberviolence report by the United Nations, I was the one to go directly to the United Nations and get their side of the story. When gaming news sites attacked Markus "Notch" Persson, the creator of Minecraft, with hit pieces, I worked for two months to get an interview with him and let him tell his story in his own words . There is no reason to write if it isn't going to be new and interesting.Previously, this Patreon was for personal use, and I was paid by feature. I am making changes in 2017. This is now a Patreon to fund my site, Game Objective This year I will partner with other writers for the site and pay them from the Patreon fund, as well as advertising revenue. Your donation will go directly toward paying for new content and improving the website. My goal is to grow Game Objective into a small but influential site respected throughout the game industry and the geek world in general.Please consider giving a dollar or two per month to keep independent, sharp, well-researched journalism alive!
