The Ides of Thompson
September 29th, 2008I didn’t comment on Jack Thompson’s disbarment, mostly because I didn’t have much to add, but thought this GSW meditation on whether he was real or a partial creation of the industry press was worth passing along. I come down along the middle of the road on this one; he was newsworthy in his sheer persistence, and so had to be reported on, but the gaming press tends to fixate and probably fed the flames more than it needed to.
