In a well balanced video report, Jake Tapper of ABC News looks at criticisms leveled against the video game industry in yesterday's Video Game Report Card. Meanwhile Chicago's ABC-7 offers a pretty straightforward piece which mentions the Report Card in relation to game ratings issues.

Otherwise, this was a pretty well-balanced report. Props to ABC.
Stupid Windows Media Player... ADOPT MPEG4 already dangit!
"If you see a youth come and play a video game that's mature, then they go on the street and trying to act out the violence, whether kicking, karate, that's the disturbing part about it," said Jeff Sadowski, Valentine Boys and Girls Club.
Dear god, you mean they actually GO OUTSIDE and PLAY after playing a video game? Who are these freakishly active children? ;)
Heaven forbid they act out moves. Next thing you know little kids will be tying towels around their necks and running around going "woosh", pointing their fingers at each other and going "bang bang", and who knows, some of the crazier ones might put on an *astronaut helmet*. GASP!
Yes, yes it is. This has always been a generation gap thing.
Sence THEY are the one's that Everyone. (Politians.) are worried about.
IT shows that kids are smarter then politians think.
The first one was objective while the second blamed the industry for stupid parents.
Its not their fault. You have to have your brain sucked out to be a politicians.
plus saying parents get a "C" right before showing one with no clue was good. didn't their report say the majority of parents can't understand the rating labels but the parents get a damn "C"?
The grades are so stinkin biased
I shall go play Halo
