This article whitewashed the whole thing and accepted LG's angle, right up to reprinting their bullshit in full.
Such crap is entirely insufficient for a tech publication, "Tom's Hardware has not independently verified either the claims made by Gamers Nexus in its documentary or LG's counterclaims."

Why? Why did you publish and throw up your hands saying "we know nothing"?
Was there possibly some money involved? Don't want to piss off your advertisers?
I reviewed this Stephen Warwick's articles. He's a corpo shill.
Miserable excuse for journalism.

Don’t want to piss off your advertisers?

It's just that.

I mean, when you have LG ads plastered all over your site, who are you going to side with?
