Biography[]
TBA
Personality[]
Being the younger brother of the richest duck in the world, he often gets compared to his brother, much to Gideon's frustration. Instead, Gideon wants to be recognized by his own success and does not wish to be constantly associated with his wealthy brother. He claims to be adamant about only giving his readers the "real news". However, Gideon secretly makes fabrications with the intent of attracting more readers and viewers. His newspaper has a focus on crime-solving, which sometimes agitates the local police, who see him as meddlesome, which he actually is sometimes. Gideon has a strong dislike of trivial news like celebrity gossip, and it infuriates him when the Duckburg public considers such things more newsworthy than important news like political events.
Gideon prides himself as the only independent news source in the state of Calisota (i.e. that has not been filtered through his brother). Gideon has an antagonistic relationship with his brother, who is jealous of Gideon's success, and often tries to buy Gideon's successful newspaper to get rid of the competition, only to be turned down every time. This is much to the frustration of Scrooge, as Gideon provides legit, honest competition, which Scrooge rarely gets.
