Psychologist, Cooper Lawrence recently pissed of the gaming community as a whole when she appeared on Fox News’ Live Desk to speak against the popular game, Mass Effect. Basically, she made criticisms about the game without actually knowing what the game was really about. You can check out that video at the bottom of this post.
Well, after gamers everywhere took out their anger on her book on Amazon.com, she must have decided that she better save her book and future income by apologizing.
I recognize that I misspoke. I really regret saying that, and now that I’ve seen the game and seen the sex scenes it’s kind of a joke.
Before the show I had asked somebody about what they had heard, and they had said it’s like pornography. But it’s not like pornography. I’ve seen episodes of ‘Lost’ that are more sexually explicit.
I think it’s pretty obvious that Fox News was all about taking down Mass Effect from the beginning, and likely had a lot to do with what Cooper Lawrence had to say about the game. I guess this is why you should never trust Fox News to provide you with any real news, because they are pretty much all about ratings. Let’s just all boycott them, ok? Ok. Here’s the video which started this drama.
