The gaming access media is pushing the narrative that there will be a boycott of Fortnite because of a recent rumor that Chapter 7 will be a Harry Potter collab.

In a story that cuts straight to the heart of Hollywood’s reputation for surface-level morality and media theatrics, a recent admission by Erika Kirk that late-night “comedian” Jimmy Kimmel offered to apologize to her and then didn’t when she wouldn’t appear on his show has ignited debate over whether public apologies from late-night figures are genuine — or just stage lights pointed at empty sincerity.
Hollywood has a long, storied tradition of polishing troubled narratives until they sparkle brighter than a Swarovski display case.
