I'm just crushed that someone like Will Wright supports McCain. It boggles the mind.

There would be Yobama jokes, like Yo Mama jokes.

Yobama's so full of positive change, he'll make a cynic become full of hope.

Yobama's so smart, he'll debate in circles around you.

Wait. These aren't jokes. I need a jokewriter.

... Gaming as a medium is not a news medium, but an entertainment/arts medium. I don't see any such bias, but given that it's a for-profit, non-news industry, there is no problem with being biased, and doesn't count as a part of the fake, supposed "liberal media" that people talk about when they are talking about news media coverage. They are two completely different things.

And the very fact that Palin isn't torn apart for her inadequacy to run for VP and McCain isn't torn apart for his 180 on a lot of subjects he was very vocal about in the recent past shows that there ISN'T a liberal media. If there were a liberal media, then I'd be happy all the time, because yes, my views are indeed liberal. So how come when I turn on the news, I am extremely unhappy with the coverage?
