    I was hoping they had Totilo as a guest for one of those GAMES ARE THE DEVILLLLL segments Fox News is known for. Unlike some of the other guys, Totilo would've told them what's what.

    And then O'Reilly would have his mic cut off. #modernwarfare2

    @Teran:
    You're right. It's the steady stream of non-news that culminates into an internally built social conscious, which they pretend is nation and world wide, that has most of us is having a problem with.

    If you'd like a good example of how this actually works, one of the news-anchors have written a book about working in FOX during the Bush-administration. It's called "Great Presidents" or something like that.

    Basically, they're doing two things - they're aiming for the "part of the American home" appeal. You know, like Star Wars. And then there's the politics. The problem is that they don't see the difference between the two. They make politics being about which figure can pretend to fulfill the mythical American image the best. About who has the best haircut. About the most tasteful tie, and ceremonious voice.

    And that's just a different way of saying that 99% of the people working at FOX are not actually journalists at the present. Instead, they're in showbusiness. #modernwarfare2

    Really Fox News deserves all the bad publicity they get. First of all they're the only idiots dumb enough to provide a viable outlet for Limbaugh and his nonsensical rants. And secondly, the only real news they discuss spurs from views provied by Beck and Hannity and O'Reilley. Very rarely if ever do they provide a real unbiased viewpoint as the news should be reported. #modernwarfare2

    @Twik63: Is this the same Beck that can't seem to make up his mind as to whether or not Obama is a racist? Did you see his health panel he held a few weeks back? The thing was filled with doctors and medical students and insurance adjusters and the only ones who agreed with his points were the insurance people because that's big business and they stand to lose the most money if universal healthcare goes through. He kept trying to lead the medicos down what he wanted them to say and they kept shooting him down and you could tell he was getting flustered. His mind is the republican mind, not his own. #modernwarfare2

    MSNBC and CNN throw bitch fits over games too. It's all bad, because you are always dealing with rich people, and folks who still see games as Mario bros stuff.

    @Demonbird: Point taken. Really, any of the 24 hour networks need something to fill the air with, so they're all pretty interchangeable in that sense.

    Also your comment reminds me of all the politicians who said things like. "I know what being a gamer is like I played Donkey Kong!" #modernwarfare2

    Maybe if he had run over 3 old ladies and a hooker, then you could assume it was GTA. But the way he took those corners, I'd say it was Forza 2 and he had a wheel. They should be thankful that the game prepped him to drive so well.
    This is more a knock against church is you ask me. Which you didn't, but i answered anyway. You're welcome.

    Must they be so quick to blame video games? Seriously, a video game doesn't teach you that you have to push in the break petal before you can change from park to reverse/drive, nor does it teach you how to disengage the hand break, or even how to start the car itself.

    The boy obviously paid close attention to how his parents operated the car, otherwise he probably would never have made it out of the driveway.

    Instead of blaming video games, blame the parents for keeping their car keys in a place where he both knew where to find them and could easily access them.

    When I was two I hijacked my parents car and drove it into oncoming traffic. This leads to three important points about my character.

    1) I am highly impressionable by video games.
    2) I can predict future video games.
    3) I have always been awesome.

    If Fox news is going to blame a GTA for provoking a kid to drive a car... then they have to accept responsibility for the recent shootings in Pittsburgh, D.C., and Texas which have left dozens dead and wounded. All of the shooters were right wing extremists and two of them watched and listened to Glen Beck 24/7. In court, you'd have an easier time proving Fox News and Glen Beck provoked the shootings than you would proving GTA had anything to do with a kid taking off in a car!
