If I were to apply Occam's razor to the two narratives that are presented there, then I'd say it's 50-50 which one is "more simple" and more likely. However - these narratives are NOT AT ALL of what's happening, as far as I can tell!
My understanding:
A bunch of deranged morons decided to issue death and rape threads to handful of women in the industry (death threats are nothing new - men get them all the time too; rape threats men don't get so often). They cover it upon some "these industry figures did massive crimes involving media coverage and used their influence to bend the media". A lot more of reasonable gamers get behind the cause, since of course, games media has a bunch of issues; and there's a bunch of corruption between developers/publishers/media. The cause is a good one. Many reasonable people can get behind that good cause.
