(Giant Bomb won't let me embed the video and copyright trolls took the clip off Youtube. Bear with me)
I like some members of the Bomb Squad enjoy my fair share of Law and Order. It's always on and usually a fantastic way to kill an hour or multiple if USA's airing a marathon. I fired up my DVR and had the pleasure of watching one of the most hysterically bad depictions of gamers ever. This is Reefer Madness levels of sensationalism that hopefully no sane individual would take seriously. However, it's troubling to think that the older generations that didn't grow up around video games might see us as crazed junkies living in squalid apartments with little to no grasp on reality.
I'm wondering if other Bombers have other great examples of the mainstream media's utter stupidity in understanding gamers and gamer culture. The more ridiculous the better.
