Fox news: "Sexbox" attracts child predators

[Standby]

The kid's playing Halo 3, he deserves to be molested.

In all seriousness though, maybe we should Windows messenger, Facebook.. hell even the escapist has the ability for prowling peado's?

You can tell the station was going to have an informed opinion with a picture of a frieking Xbox up there.

I really, really want obama to pass a bill closing down this news station.

freedom of speech is (not) a *****. Tell me would you like it if someone(me for example) was trying to deny you yours, if not then can it. cause thats basically what you want obama to do. and news flash They have a right to tell the news the way they choose even if you disagree(and don't get me wrong I think this shit is ridiculous personally)

"The makers of XBOX says..."

Seriously. How can anyone take FOX News seriously? Seriously.

"...luring children through headsets..."

What is this I don't even...
It was very scary.

caught having sex with a 15 year old girl ....

ok .. is it just me .. or is this NOT rape? ... a 15 year old girl spreads her legs and allows herself to be fucked by this guy .. it's a conscious decision .. as conscious as it gets .. internet also allows little sluts to seduce guys ...

it works both ways ppl .. some girls pretend to be overage in clubs then good guys get in trouble for screwing a 14 year old that looked 20 ...

first up "got any pics online" and dud flirting is just trolling .. secondly .. horny little sluts have been getting into clubs and screwing guys easily since the dawn of time .. any 13 - 15 year old with tits and some legs will get into any club without ID nowadays (anyone who doesn't believe me needs to get out more) nowadays you need to ask for ID just like those guys selling cigs or you'll get in trouble .. sounds gay too when you and a girl have been hitting it off for an hour next thing she knows you're asking proof of age ..

some girls even blackmail guys after the sex .. they admit they were underage and then blackmail the person into a relationship .. sad but true

Online games are perfect against sexual predators it keeps them safely locked away in their own homes.

No...No... nooooo! The Ignorance has gotten you Fubart!

KILL ME BEFORE I BREEEEEEEEEED.....

By airsoft Desert Eagle or by Ignorance Overload?

 

[Rawker]

OH MY SWEET BLESSED LORD!


I need to go home, lock up all my daughters and beat my sons into submission for playing this horrible sex toy of a console!

Thanks Fox news, for warning me of this impending doom!

I too should seek several hours of therapy and psychiatric attention due to verbal molestation I have received from playing that wretched devil-box! FOX news, save my wretched soul!

 

[Rational-Delirium]

Read the comments. Some trolls tried to spin this 'attack' of a guy against a girl into "THE GAYES R RECRUITING R KIDZ!" Fail. Just, epic fail.
It doesn't matter what political faction you belong to. Stupid is stupid.

WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS PEOPLE!

[HEADING=1]THAT IS NOT FOX NEWS[/HEADING]

It is a local affliate station and in no way represents this Fox News [http://www.foxnews.com/] (<- the real one). Outside of about 6 hours in the day, they play sitcoms, sports games, and soap operas. There are other Fox affiliates that are liberal.

Please learn about the American television broadcast system.

Of course, since it's news, they sensationalize it and make it seem like a bigger deal than it is. "Someone think of the children" sells, after all. But I wouldn't call this report all that inaccurate. I mean, yeah, Fox News is a joke and we all know that, but I don't really see the big deal here.

You don't see a big deal in asking obviously loaded questions like "Xbox a sex predator paradise?"

Sex predator paradise? Seriously? That's not overstating things, just a tad? Utopia for sex predators! All you need is a 360 and a credit card! Could they be any more alarmist?

This is the stuff of parodies, and it is not meant to be, which is a problem.

This would be true, if they weren't so irresponsible in their reporting. I know it is nothing new to hate on Fox, but flat out lying to the public and presenting it as news, as opposed to political commentary, ought to be banned, no matter the station. Freedom of speech doesn't mean there is absolutely no degree of responsibility involved.

Such as?

But more importantly, why do the politics of the station even matter? It wasn't mentioned in the OP anywhere. This is just irresponsible reporting, no matter what their "bias" is.

seriously how often could this happen having a conversation over Xbox live sucks and if a child gives out their personal information over xbox live their parents deserve to be beaten, because that is the the main point of stranger danger, besides not getting in their car. this is complete BS. I would bet someone wrote it because they were five minutes from the deadline and remembered if you talk crap about videogames it goes on the front page.

 

[TheBXRabbit]

My experience playing the 360 is usually the exact opposite: little kids trying to sound older by shouting out insults and expletives.

They make my ears hurt (not from the swearing, high-pitched kiddy voices just sound awful over a headset), and I get this urge to slap whoever lets them have an internet connection.

 

[snow]

Now that I think of it... Every time I see this thread in the latest discussion box.. I can't help but picture a bunch of Predator children crowding around a box with a hole in it...

A bit random, but I have already posted my thoughts on it earlier so I can't really think of anything else to add to the top that post off... =\

 

[Chunko]

Doesn't seem like they were attacking Xbox live, just pedophiles on it.

 

[wwjdftw]

Ok, I, think that the pointless trashing of FOX is stupid and while I think that ths aticle is ridiculous, shit, FoX isnt ALL insane fuckers, and I think that they put out maybe 1 good story every 10 years... This however is not one of them...

Pointless hate is pointless any one?

It matters because simply being Fox affiliated doesn't mean they are Fox News or report on any of the same stories.

The one by me, KMSP, is left leaning, but that could also be because I live in a blue state. The conservative local station is ABC affiliated.

No...No... nooooo! The Ignorance has gotten you Fubart!

KILL ME BEFORE I BREEEEEEEEEED.....

Okay...

But there is only one proper way to do this:

[RelexCryo]

Yeah well that would be illegal, but probably justified as it's basically a Christian Rightist lie factory.

I wouldn't say I like Fox News, but to be fair he would then have to shut down liberal lie factories as well. Women's Liberation classes that teach 3/4 of all women are raped by the age of 20 for example.

 

[13thforswarn]

I don' see what the problem is with the article. It's true. there are pedophiles on Xbox Live.
