Watching the
Fox News Channel (on purpose) should only be done by the very
brave: I think that their programming can actually account for
ninety percent of all
cases of sudden cranial hemorrhaging (SCH).
For anyone who hasn't seen the story in question, Fox News ran a segment analyzing
Mass Effect and its power to destroy America's children. Now, when I think of credible
journalism, the Fox News Channel is something that never enters my pretty little head for
any reason...
but the lies!
I'm not sure what game Fox News was playing, but I don't remember any 'full digital nudity'
or 'graphic sex' in Mass Effect. Did I miss it? Was this some sort of hidden achievement?
No, it wasn't. It was a lie.
I put over 40 hours into Mass Effect. If there was anything in that game even
close
what Fox News said, I've obviously missed something.
One thing I
haven't missed is that Fox News has been overrun by Nazis Of Credibility,
who are always willing to tell outright lies for a spike in their ratings. Don't forget, these are
the same people who let the clinically insane
'Wacko Jacko' Thompson on national
television for the sole purpose of capitalizing on the deaths of innocent people in the
Virginia Tech shootings. I'm sure that when the news broke, all the Fox News anchors
started rubbing their hands together in sick glee.
Thankfully, people are taking action against this latest breach in news journalism and the
standards it should carry. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I hope Microsoft sues
somebody for this. EA
should be putting each and every single one of their
lawyers to work on this, but they chose to take the high road and simply ask for a
retraction.
Yeah, like
that will ever happen.
Cooper Lawrence, author of some book, put her two cents into Fox News's report by adding
another string of lies about video games and the people who play them. At least Geoff
Keighley was there to provide some factual balance. Unfortunately, Cooper and her
verbal diarrhea could not stopped.
"... And the research says there's a new study out of University of Maryland right now
that says that boys who play video games cannot tell the difference between what
seeing in the video game and the real world if they don't have a real experience."
Poppycock. What a load of tripe.

POPPYCOCK!!!!!!!
Now you know how I feel when I have to listen to the lies of all the left-wing Godless douchebags anchors.
There was no full nudity but there was graphic sex. Youtube doesn't lie. There allegedly was a brief amount of nudity although I haven't seen it.
It is kind of a sad day when games feel like they need to feature nudity. Like in movies, it means game developers are starting to think that they've already seen all the profits that quality can yield, it's time to reach for the teenage pervert dollar.
Also, I'd never seen a five-engine B-52 before today.

Have you actually watched the videos in question? Titanic came out almost eleven years ago and features more stark nudity and depictions of sex than this video. People just want a bandwagon to jump on.
Fox news has always done these type of things, trust me, they are notoriously known for making up shit and messing with context.
Fox News is terrible, and weedgan is absolutely correct.
The game is as tame as watching MTV or the OCs.... lamuhs
