Grant Stoner is a freelance reporter who specializes in covering accessibility and disability across the games industry in his work.
Among other work, he writes a monthly column for IGN where he recently examined how the mass layoffs ripping through the games industry have affected disabled game workers, in particular. This is a great example of why Grant's perspective is so necessary in the games media right now, shining a spotlight on an often overlooked area of games and the people who play and make them.
"They can't afford their medications, they've had to stop procedures, some person can't afford life-saving medication that they were only able to afford because of their insurance... So often, with accessibility, we see that 'oh, these studios are great, they really care about us', but this is the reality of being disabled, especially if you're in this industry."
