Nothing is as controversial as the combination of the entertainment media and politics. When something becomes obscene in the media, the politicians step in to shut it all down. Video games are a part of that entertainment media, and it has come under fire from politicians dozens of times over the years. From Mortal Kombat and Joseph Lieberman to Grand Theft Auto and Jack Thompson, the political game has been going on since the 16-bit era and only gets bigger and sometimes worse. This week on Gaming Trends we look at the history of this political game. Plus, everybody has been saying bad things about Jack Thompson, but is he as evil as we make him out to be? I believe so, because I'll be comparing him to another modern day evil plaguing our society.
