    Duke Nukem PR firm publicly threaten to 'blacklist' journalists who gave poor reviews

    It's know that game PR companies use a variety of dodgy tactics, but the existence of 'blacklisting' now glaringly public:

    The twitterer apologised after the fact.

    Nevertheless, is the games industry the only place where critics are treated like this? Do film and music journalists not get invited to preview screenings or sent preview tapes if they've written bad things about directors or bands?
