“You can talk bad about Snooki all you want! Insult someone you don’t know all you want! Don’t you dare talk about Diana Allers! How dare you have an opinion about Diana that differs from mine! She is a real person and has feelings and she is also my very best friend!”

Actually, the BSN isn’t the only place that has made the comparison. Loads of other websites have too. Anyway, what is the big deal?

Forget Jessica Chobot. When you take in EVERY CONCEIVABLE, BLATANTLY OBVIOUS DIFFERENCE IN APPEARANCE, can you honestly say Diana Allers looks anywhere near similar to Snooki?

Um... I can't. Further than "long dark hair and moderately dark skin", but even Khalisah bint Sinan al-Jilahni might be squeezed into such description.

She was also based on Snooki. So was Ash. Any female character with moderately dark skin looks like Snooki to me.

  


why don't you look at the screen shot again Jessica is white

Looking at the pics of Jessica and Snooki... The resemblance is uncanny. They're both female and they both have eyes, and ears and a mouth.

I like this human! He understands!

I just came across this article. www.novede.com/2012/02/02/1328164924/jessica-chobot-should-never-have-agreed-be-mass-effect-3

It is basically about Chobot working for Bioware and reporting about their game for G4TV at the same time. Can someone say, conflict of interests? No? How about bias?
For me, the fact that she is doing this www.youtube.com/watch , while being on a contract for Bioware at the same time, makes her credibility as a journalist null and void.
What the hell is going on here? Are these people really such amateurs, so that they fail to realize just how bad this looks? I swear to god, this will be their own undoing one day.

   


So Martin Sheen does movies and shows beside VO for ME 2 and 3. EA hired her to do ME 3

You manage to completely miss the point. 
Does conflict of interests mean anything to you? Do you see Martin Sheen on Gametrailers doing reports on ME3? No? Didin't think so.

[Knubbsal]

I don't think Allers looks like a snooki...



And as long as the character in game isn't based on the real person more than having the looks and voice then I don't really mind it.

That's dumb and you can't be taken seriously, here the big deal. As far as i am  concerned, we still can give our opinions about your childish behaviors or opinions.

Categorizations about women with a particular type of features from their body, with a negative connotation and with the intent to mock that person, you don't see anything wrong ? lol.

Oh and I love the : Internet does that, so it's intelligent, why not me.

Chobot is a gaming jounalist/reporter plain and simple.  She doesn't work for CBS, CNN, Fox (even though there standards are worse), NBC, ABC, CBC, BBC etc.  She's more like a entertainment, music or sports reporter who don't follow a real code of ethics.  Instead they're more like promoters marketing products to consumers and giving consumers access to info via media.  Bias really doesn't matter.  When she's doing a review piece it's an opinion piece and doesn't fall under objective reporting by default.  There are bigger things in life than worrying about the virtues of the entertainment industry.

btw, what's a snooki?

A strange bipedal from the depths of this planet. It is a rare sight to see a snooki, they mostly hang around in damp caverns, sucking the water from the walls.

Not much is known about them but they are hostile so best to watch from afar. If approached, they turn orange and attempt to ward us away by shouting 'smush smush'.

David Attenborough once recorded that 'smush smush' is also a mating call.

hmm. much like a 'meatball'
also, for those that thought i didn't know of snooki and the other jersey shore folks, twas joking

Yes I had problems writing that myself the same way I have problems calling anyone reporting on etertainment to be journalists period.  When it comes to gaming, most are really just reviewers, bloggers and the TV hosts are well, TV hosts.

If you are fine with the lowest of standards for journalism, then that is your choice. I will continue to be critical and express my criticism on every step. I refuse to accept the fact, that this is where gaming journalism has fallen. It is unacceptable and rather insulting to any intelligent person out there.

Are you serious? Childish behavior is saying, “Yeah, I can see some similarities between the two. Interesting.”? Yet, getting completely upset and insulting others just because their opinions differ from yours isn’t? Getting upset because someone sees a comparison, unflattering or otherwise, between two people isn’t childish? Yeah, keep telling yourself how mature you are. I didn’t intend for the statement inside the quotations to be taken seriously and if you took it that way, it says more about you than the statement.

Categorizations about women with a particular type of feature from their body, with a negative connotation and with the intent to mock that person, you don't see anything wrong ? lol.

First of all, Diana Allers is not a person. She is a pixilated video game character. Saying that she resembles Snooki is not placing a negative connotation on her body. And what features are supposedly being mocked? Her eyes? Her nose? Her cheeks? The cheeks is where I see the comparison the most, and even Jessica Chobot herself makes fun of her cheeks as Diana Allers. Saying a woman’s cheeks, eyes or nose resembles another woman’s eyes, cheeks and nose does not demean her. So, no. I don’t see anything wrong with people saying a video game character looks like Snooki. If people were saying Jessica Chobot looked like her, I would maybe see a point being made. No one is saying that. Most I have seen have said Jessica Chobot is beautiful, but her character…no. Again: Diana Allers is not real. You do not know her. Don’t take it so seriously. Especially to the point where you must insult others.

Oh c'mon Prince. You disappoint me. On one hand you are highly critical about the quality of the new ME novel, but on the other you are fine with such low standards of today's journalism? C'mon, I'm trying to rage here people. Help a brother out here by expressing some of that honest criticism.

Can we really call it Journalism.. cause its not... 

They don't take about  real  stories that could considered news in the game world. 

Studies being preformed.. 

About the teach in Minnesota that bought his enitere class  Nintendo DS's and some over the self puzzle games. There math and reading scores rose. 

The and utter ceasepool of  hate, racism,  everything else that online  multiplayer gaming has become.  

There was good bit of  news on SOPA even less on ACTA.

And Interview with the Makers of Call of Duty about what the international Red Cross said... Hell even try together some round tables  between developers about some of issues that gaming faces in the future.

What the hell is the big deal anyway? She has worked as a model and is a gamer. What is so wrong with her showing up in a game? Sure, at first glace it looks like they used her appearance in ME3 as a way to attract more people, but... maybe she has actually tried to get into voice-over work and we don't know.
Just another announcement for BSN to freak out over. *sigh*

I don't care if she is in or not, i just find the Jersey Shore jokes funny. The in-game characters resemblance to Ronnie and Snooki is great.

Yeah, I kind of get that. Honeslty, Diana's problem is probably just the lighting.

It's just a character. You can even kick her off you don't like her. Seems like the perfect solution to me.
I don't even watch the show but I have seen the "people" on it. Vega and her don't seem like them in the slightest.
Just look at Jonathan in MGS4, that guy was a badass and I expect no different from Vega.

So you can kick her off the Normandy? If that is the case that is the best news I have heard, Because having her in game character looking exactly likes her kills the immersion for me.

Wait, there are high standards for journalism?

On a serious note, Chobot is a more honest and engaging individual in discussions then most game "journalists".  When I first heard that she was on IGN, I was like "Here comes another one of those", but she has genuinely surprised me.  Yeah, she licked a game system, so what?  That doesn't affect who she is when commentating and reporting. 

I just don't really understand what the problem with her is.

Just want to correct this

tabloid journalism=/= journalism. Just because they have a word to descirbe what it is doesn't mean that they're the same thing. She works for a tabloid magazine site that distribute propagandist pieces. That's not journalism.

[Cloaking_Thane]

Conflict of interest is what it is not matter how slight. I'm sure she was bound by a "no speaking about your ME3 role until it's known" however if that is the case she should have at least recused herself from interviews about it before hand.

No there arent gaming journalist standards per se, but this could have easily been avoided.

I don't even really like Allers from what I've seen so far, but I have to say, comparing her to some reality TV bimbo is a bit far.

...Why we would be able to kick off Allers though? Wouldn't it be like trying to kick off Joker or Engineer Adams?

Why don't you use that effort on actual jounralism would be my suggestion.  Journalistic integrity breaks down in etertainment because of it's very nature etc.  You will notice that movie, music, gaming and sports reporters/jounalist buddy up, party with and generally socialize and voice many opinions about the people their covering.  You have to hold them to a lesser standard or else you're wasting your breath.  Don't waste your time being insulted by entertainment.  It's about fun (and money) remember?

I save my angst for journalist when it comes to the important things in life that actually effect the way people live:

-Politics
-Corporate Curruption
-Scandal
-Government Policy
-yadayadayada

Even then bias is always present and the only way to combat it is to consume multiple media reports to get the whole story.  This has always been the case since the invention of newspapers.  The same applies to the entertainment industry, but again I don't care about it because it doesn't impact me one way or the other.

Also gaming journalism hasn't fallen because it didn't really exist as a super entity until the last decade and (stretching it) a half.

Haha, Chobot a "journalist." No one in the gaming press is a journalist. They're just PR mouthpieces who sometimes provide opinions on things.

I'm still appalled at how terrible her in-game character looks. It's like they dipped her in a vat of Crisco she's so shiny.

They don't take about  real  stories that could considered news in the game world. 

Studies being preformed.. 

About the teach in Minnesota that bought his enitere class  Nintendo DS's and some over the self puzzle games. There math and reading scores rose. 

The and utter ceasepool of  hate, racism,  everything else that online  multiplayer gaming has become.  

There was good bit of  news on SOPA even less on ACTA.

And Interview with the Makers of Call of Duty about what the international Red Cross said... Hell even try together some round tables  between developers about some of issues that gaming faces in the future. 

   

This is not a question about gaming journalism being true journalsim or not, or wahtever you wanna call it. It is about Chobot's conflict of interests, that void's her credibility when she is reporting as a "journalist" on a project on wich she is part of (ME3). I don't know about you, but I find that highly unprofessional, not just on her part, but on part of whoever allowed her to report on ME3.
