Anatomy of a Scandal<\/em><\/p>\n Read More:<\/strong> Tripwire CEO ‘Steps Down’ After Supporting Anti-Abortion Law<\/span><\/p>\nAs you might expect, some staff weren’t happy with the email. Bloomberg <\/em>reports that internal discussion about the email was negative, with many sharing their anger and disappointment over the tone of the letter and its lack of a stance in support of reproductive rights. One employee reportedly wrote that they had “never been so mad about a cat birthday before.” Some women at the company allegedly wrote that they felt their rights had been disrespected or even trivialized by Ryan’s email.<\/p>\nWhile PlayStation and Jim Ryan seem unable or unwilling to offer more concrete support for abortion access and the rights of women in the United States, Bungie has taken a much different approach<\/span>.<\/p>\nThe Destiny<\/em> developer has spent the past week and a half on Twitter, publicly supporting access to abortion, condemning the possible overturning of Roe v. Wade, and even taking on angry gamers who don’t like the idea of \u200b\u200bstudios supporting their employees and their bodily rights. Under the circumstances, it’s interesting to note that PlayStation is planning to buy Bungie for $ 3.6 billion<\/span>. (Kotaku <\/em>also reached out to Bungie for this story, but didn’t receive a response before publication.) I’m curious if Sony and PlayStation will be okay with the studio continuing to be so publicly supportive of abortion rights once the sale is complete. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
