Something to consider: in newspapers, the ads aren't being paid by the people who are being reported in the news. Well, unless something specific happened at a certain company, but it's not the focus. But in video game magazines, all ads are being paid by the industry players themselves.

Conflict of interest, anyone? Don't talk like it's only suspected that it is like this, because it really is. The most recent example was the debacle at GameSpot about a year back.
