News - Wait, Jack Thompson is SANE?!

By now, everyone knows about Cooper Lawrence's credibility getting flushed down the toilet after she publicly bashed EA (http://www.gamesarefun.com/gamesdb/search.php?by=Company&search=EA)'s Mass Effect (http://www.gamesarefun.com/gamesdb/search.php?by=Game&search=Mass%20Effect) on Fox News. It wasn't so much that she spoke out about the game, but she openly admitted to never having played the RPG.
Now, it seems as Mass Effect (http://www.gamesarefun.com/gamesdb/search.php?by=Game&search=Mass%20Effect) is getting some good publicity from an unusual source: Florida Lawyer and Rockstar Games (http://www.gamesarefun.com/gamesdb/search.php?by=Company&search=Rockstar%20Games) public enemy number one, Jack Thompson.
Yes, Jack Thompson! In a correspondence of emails with Brian Crecente at Kotaku.com, Thompson calls Fox News' actions "absolutely ridiculous", and that "The guy who shot his mouth off about it had no idea what the Hell he was talking about."
Jack admits that he has absolutely no problem with the game, but seeing as it doesn't allow you to shoot hookers, I doubt he would have anyway.
In other news, Satan has declared a state of emergency as record snowfall has effectively shut down Hell.

I really could not stop laughing at this one.
