The more we see virtual worlds appear in mainstream commentary the more we realize how deeply they are seeping into society. Reporting on congressional hearings shows some degree of questioning and depth in the news not just sensationalism and fear. That could be some high-brow way of saying they were making fun of “us” and we don’t like it. However, this is great and we do :-).
The Daily Show is well respected over this side of the pond too. (Thanks to fellow eightbar Chris Howard in Ireland for sending the link this morning)
