a clip off of one of fox's new stations trying to give Mass Effect a bad rep for having a sex scene in it. now here's why that stupid cunt writer should know what the hell she's talking about before she opens her mouth:

Yeah, I was following this a week ago. (It was all the rage on the Mass Effect boards at GameFAQS and Bioware.) I believe after 4 of her 5 books' ratings got trashed at Amazon they reset a few. But not all.

Point was: don't piss off nerds; it's their world nowadays, and the rest of us are just living in it.

the amazon comments made my day, she deserves nothing less then to be lambasted.
i loved the exchanges.

<rant on>

you should all know that Fox news is not really news.. its commentary.
this is probably one of the biggest tragedies to befall journalism
its why the daily shows producers describe their success as the result of others failure.

it provides viewer expected bias under the guise of reporting, however its intent and actual bottom line is controlled by required profit, it is to feed the viewer what they want, not what they need. so it appeals to a demographic not for the purpose of fact.

it is sad, the regulation made news operate in the "public interest," and the public interest is entertainment not really news.

note that the BBC standard for objective reporting blocks Fox news(UK) from export, while Al Jazeera (yes the Arab news source described as vicious and inaccurate by the current administration) is, due to a larger objective goal.

Al Jazirah > fox news...
i hope the gravity of such a reality is not missed here.

Cooper deserves every ounce

not to mention scientology viva Anonymous! Smile


BTW, in those links
http://www.destructoid.com/karmic-retribution-fox-psychologist-gets-a-taste-of-her-own-ignorant-medicine-66651.phtml
when you click the "Cooper Lawrence" link it takes you to the wikipedia entry for "bitch" LOL

This is the second time something like this has happened in as many weeks. Penny Arcade linked to some other guy who had criticised Mass Effect and told a load of lies about how it was depraved and it got thousands of comments in a few hours and has since been removed.

heres another one i caught today

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=18482794
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/opinion/points/stories/DN-hymowitz_27edi.ART0.State.Edition1.378ca5b.html
WOW.. very surprised NPR gave this a bit of respect

"in fact....it is not until you marry and have children that you really become a full member of the community."

women seem to relish the definition of maturity as the biological urge (ehem,, impulse) to settle and have kids, ......solipsist

the blog comments really show the answers in that one too Smile

btw
mature; "a term used in psychology to indicate that a person responds to the circumstances or environment in an appropriate manner; often this implies a response that is reasoned or learned rather than impulsive"

i feel the same way.

I hate all these news reporters who just come out and talk about things they dont know about. They seem to believe that they are more important then they are, and have a right to express their biased and naive opinions makes me angry. Like in this, theres a tiny portion of nudity. Someone could walk through the check-out line in a grocery store and see more nudity then is contained in this game, but since this is a video game it should be bashed.

Its the same thing with Corey Delaney. She came out and told him to apologize, and what to do and what he should do like she has some sort of significance or was somehow effected by his party.

They need to be put into their rightful places, and people on the internet seem to do that quite nicely.
