Little Jeffy Harris just thought the bright pictures of naked ladies his new friend brought him were funny. He would spent long recesses giggling quietly and conversing in hushed tones to his pal, as they both laughed innocently at the people with no clothes.

But Jeffy's new friend was not another boy. No, not at all. This friend was special. He was only about the size of a brick, with speakers instead of a mouth and a glossy screen where his eyes should be: Jeffy's best friend was the Playstation Pornable.

What mom thought was just a game is actually a very sophisticated piece of electronics that a clever kid can use to capture pornographic images out of thin air. In the school's library, Jeff was eager to show his friends his new Sony Play Station Portable, or PSP. On a dare, Jeff showed his pals how the PSP could magically display images of naked women.

I despise you utterly, Fox News. More after the jump.

Who wants to bet that "Jeff Harris" is a made-up name? But it occurs to me to wonder whether this continuing ignorance on the part of mainstream media (and mainstream parents) is beneficial to the games community as a whole, or detrimental. It's irritating that these people want to make things hard for us (see Jack Thompson, etc.), but gratifying that they don't know how.

Usually we follow a one-quote-per-post format, but this was just gold, and I had to include it:

David Walsh/National Institute on Media and the Family: "I talk to parents everyday who are discovering that some of their teenagers are not just curious about messing around with porn, but are deeply into pornography."

Adolescent humans deeply interested in portrayals of sexual acts?! Inconceivable! Eliza Gauger
