    Jack Thompson has weighed in on the Kevin McCollough furor (his original column was removed from Townhall.com but is reprinted here for your reading pleasure). He – incredibly – pronounces it “absolutely ridiculous” and says that the author “shot his mouth off about it had no idea what the Hell he was talking about.” What the hell, did we just get the Bizarro Jack Thompson? Is it backwards day?

    I guess we should just consider it a victory for the informed, active gaming community that those involved in this Mass Effect mass misrepresentation (and the other one) have been bludgeoned into rationality.
