Hmm. I wonder if they didn't because they're trying to strengthen the gamer/conservative connection. They were all about blaming video games for anything right up until GamerGate was declared a hate movement by feminists. (Ergo, liberals.) I wouldn't put it past them to try to worm their way in, and right now they're just in some kind of trust building stage.  Of course, as a GamerGater, I generally just distrust the media at large at the moment, so that might just be my paranoia talking.
