Anne Diamond - Now Writing for A Game Mag!
WeAreTheLolocaust \| 3:03 AM on 06.17.2008	6 comments

Play Magazine Hire The Shit Spweing Slag to Write for them.

Confirming on this morning's 'The Wright Stuff' Anne (I hate Games) Diamond confirmed that since she wrote the article on evil in gaming, she has become hated by the gaming community (at least she noticed) and as a result Play Magazine have asked her to write for them regularly, to provide a 'mum's point of view' on games.

What a steamin' pile of bollocks.

Ultimately this means one of two things:

1) Play Magazine thinks that Anne Diamond is a font of wisdom

2) No one buys the magazine, in favour of Edge or GamesTM etc... and this is shameless headline grabbing.

I can't say either way, but I have emailed them to provide a 'Dad's point of view' being as I am not only a parent of three, as well as a trained Youth Worker and a governor of a local school, through which I am getting DS consoles used as learning tools, so hopefully I shall be as faily hired. (Unless of course I am not reviled enough within the gaming community to get people blogging...)

- On a related note, she just said 'crap' on morning TV, how dare she corrupt my child's ears with such filth???

Down with that sort of thing.

Fantastic. I used to watch that show, and whenever Ann was on, I crossed my fingers that she'd make some kind of innane statement about game and then look silly. any videos? I'd like to watch it unfold...

I've got it on mini-dvd - just converting it to upload to Youtube this afternoon.

As soon as she said 'I wrote an article...' I somehow knew what was going to follow, then BAM! hit me with the sucker punch.

UglyDuck

Utterly epic, bravo. I'll look forward to that later :D

Skribble

Who DOESN'T want to read her spew her horrible sexist remarks about how every man who doesn't have a wife, 2 kids and a mortgage by age 21 is a man-teen-child-boy who is irresponsible and is escaping responsibility.

She is horrible human being, a bias slutwhore and nobody likes her. Boo, PLAY magazine, very boo.

Video is on Youtube awaiting the verification of the YouTube monkeys...

It will be viewable on www.youtube.com/wearethelolocaust and hopefully here too, if I get time...

Apologies for the sound quality, my hard drive recorder went a bit funky, so had to film it from the tv, onto mini dvd... then onto Youtube.

Haha, that picture is priceless! Who is this bag again? Was this the lady that did the retarded piece about guys who game being "man-children" or something like that. If so, she should stick to hugging her vibrator with matching DVD collection of Sex and the City and leave video games alone.
