I wouldn't know. Or care. Doesn't keep FOX News from making her out to look like God if she's going to nab them ratings form the bible-thumping fundie soccer moms.

*starts laughing, doesn't stop for about a minute*

Whoo, that's good.

Oh, they'll say anything to try and kill VGs.
Nevermind that most of the "problems" they cause  in real life stem from inattentive or violent parents/guardians/surroundings.

*spits* Idiots.

Ha! Even better! The "Psychologist" who was on the news story is getting slammed by vigilante gamer justice!

Check out the book's reviews here. God bless the internet. Now maybe people will learn to stop ****ing with us on our own turf!

They're employing the same tactic as they did on Jack Thompson's book? Just desserts, even if it comes off as extreme.

They'll probably just ignore it because they're too ashamed to admit that EA was right, and they were being completely idiotic as always.

She apologized.

http://gamepolitics.com/2008/01/26/cooper-lawrence-i-misspoke-about-mass-effect/

Very big of her. Most people just attack the gamers again.

Most of the 1-star reviews on her books have been deleted by the gamer's.

I think she might be the first person to apologise for something like this.

Correct me if I'm wrong...
