Where Politics And Video Games Collide

I expect this was the result of that ad requesting how video games lead you to a life of crime. This lady was probably bought and paid for to make such a statement.

I think this is the new advertising concept. They used to tell you important stories were coming up:
"President visits Pensylvania."

When that didn't get enough veiwers/readers, they tried to entertain:
"A dog saves the life of a Fireman, details coming up!"

Still not enough readers, so then they tried to frighten:
"There is something in your home that is slowly killing your children, find out what it is at nine!"

Now, the next great idea is to insult a group, and watch all the viewers come rolling in. I think they are working on the idea that there is no such thing as bad publicity.

"Gamers are morons!"
"Nintendo didn't raise my children the right way!"
"Top 10 reasons why our viewers suck!"

For now on, whenever a news story insults gamers, tells a rediculous story like the one above, or has JT on for any reason, they will not get my viewing, my advertising hit, or anything. I'll make a note in GP, perhaps, but I won't support Faux News, Daily Fail, or any other tabloid press.

As for the story:
I've seen bad parents, and I've seen how their kids turn out. I wouldn't like to see how these kids turn out in 15 years. I wonder how many will be out on probation and how many will still be in jail. Kids will be kids, but you need to learn this stuff sometime, and if their parents don't teach them, they will have entitlement issues, which often lead to taking something because they think they deserve it, or simply because they want it. When I was 5 I had already learned that you don't mess with your siblings stuff, and that it was better to give something up and have the option of playing it later then to have something removed altogether. Simple cause and effect. This lady sounds like a dog fight promoter, throwing a toy in amougst her children just to see who would come out with it.
