After my editorial the other day, I feel obligated to add some more voices to the mix.

Just a sampling.

* Video game blog god Brian Crecente at Kotaku.com analyzed a segment that aired on Fox News featuring anti-game evangelist Jack Thompson. I think Brian exposes him for an opportunist and a liar, but judge for yourself.

* In response to Thompson’s various media appearances only hours after the shootings, MSNBC points out that he and other pundits were a little quick to point fingers.

* And finally, William Vitka at the New York Post talks about this Thompson character and his precarious position as an “expert.”
