How The Daily Mail Uses Tragedy To Spread Gaming Fear
"The Daily Mail has again tried to prove that playing games is deadly. The tragic story of a 14 year old who killed himself has been twisted by the national newspaper, in a attempt to profit from his death by propagandising the cause of his suicide. This is too sad.
For those unaware, the Daily Mail is a long-running UK national newspaper, owned by Associated Media, that is well known for its far-right-wing stance and its extremist views. Today the paper is infamous for carrying unevidenced scare stories on many matters, frequently targeting gaming, as well as suggesting that almost everything in the world causes and simultaneously prevents cancer."

It Was All The Daily Mail's Fault!
"Today, we turn our attention to the Daily Mail again. For once, they aren’t focusing on violent films, but violent computer games, after they published this idiotic article earlier this week. I hope you will indulge me, as I digress from talking about extreme cinema, and Thank you for letting me sidestep away from our usual themes and topics.
Regular readers will know of my stance on the Daily Mail. I loathe them, and everyone who works for them, with every fibre of my being. The editor, Paul Dacre, is famous for being an overpaid, foul-mouthed reprobate, who happily labels any staff member who dares to question his decisions, as an explicit four-letter genital expletive, (colloquially known as “C U Next Tuesday”)!"
