1UP editor discusses walking off CNBC show on gaming violence

I've never walked off the set of a TV show in disgust before, but this week I did. There's a first time for everything, I guess. I was in the studio for a live-to-tape session of the Donny Deutsch show on CNBC, "The Big Idea" on Tuesday morning this week. After enduring it for about 10 or 15 minutes it was clear that the whole situation had been a set-up from outset.

What an interesting read. I am not suprised that so much got cut from the "live" show. Its sad because the general public has no idea of the reality of this subject.

This shows off the major problem with the "mass media" and the issue of violence in video games. First of all, it shows just how ignorant these "journalists" really are.

Do some frickin' research for crying out loud. You might also try being unbiased. I know that is hard for a lot of people.
