Why are all these posters focusing on the Daily Mail? They've only reported what Mediawatch UK had to say. Unless they completely fabricated the statements of Mediawatch UK, then what the Daily Mail has to say isn't the real issue. Rather, what Mediawatch UK has to say is the real issue.
Entirely fair, they also 'only report' what the racist group the EDF have to say, as well as anti muslim groups, anyone who might have any problem at all with anything fun, from the worlds of movies, TV, gaming, or music.
If we go back to the Ross/Brand thing where they left an offensive voicemail, it got 2 complaints, one of which was about Brand mocking Ross's speech impediment. The Mail then runs a campaign about how offensive it was, knowing their readers would never have listened to it or cared, so they 'helpfully' put links up so everyone could be offended.
They're also pissed that Ross earned so much, despite the money going to his production company and keeping others in work. They don't seem to have any criticism for Littlejohn, who makes crappy jokes daily about people in wheelchairs, johnny foreigner, towelheads and the like, seems he really earns his million pounds a year, or Jan Moir, who finds the deaths of homosexuals to be just nature fixing a glitch.
I should state that the Sun is almost as bad, but at least most people don't take it seriously, it's more a comic for adults than a newspaper, and the Express is possibly even more reactionary than the Mail, but not as widespread.
A final point to get me back on topic, how is this like 7/7? Because there's a shot of the underground? Surely MS Train Simulator should be banned too, then. That's like claiming all other games are mocking 9/11 because there's some action near a building, I'm certainly surprised they haven't called for the banning of Jenga, it's soo disrespectful to America.
Again, it's the usual double standard that games are just fun toys for kids, and therefore can't deal with any topic that movies, books and TV have a free run on.
