Bloomberg Reporter Blacklisted by Rockstar After Leaking GTA 6 Trailer Release Time
Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier has been blacklisted by Rockstar Games after he leaked the release time of the first GTA 6 trailer a day early in November 2023. A Rockstar lead character artist stated they "don't want him poking around our company and projects" in response to a tweet from @GTAVI_Countdown.
There were even reports that Rockstar President Sam Houser considered delaying the release of the first GTA 6 trailer to retaliate against Jason Schreier.
Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier previously worked for the gaming media outlet Kotaku for many years and has been criticized by players for pretending to be a "real journalist" while frequently publishing repetitive articles, criticizing game companies he dislikes. He often criticized companies for frequently working overtime to develop games, with Rockstar and EA being frequent targets of his criticism.
