I wanted to take a few moments regarding a topic that is not discussed too often but is another example of liberty being eaten away nonetheless. I'm referencing access to media, and more specifically, video games.
Earlier today, I read an article about Electronic Arts (EA) not toppling under political pressure to take the terrorist sect known as Taliban out of their most recent multi-console gaming release, Medal of Honor. For those of you familiar with the franchise, it is a modern-age reboot set to compete with the likes of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
British Defense Secretary Liam Fox criticized the game, calling on retailers not to sell Medal Of Honor in order to "show their support for the armed forces." ([URL=http://www.letschangeamerica.com/2010/08/game-over-for-gamers/]MORE[/URL])
