IGN Editor & Nazis

Here's an interesting one. The IGN X-Box Editor In Chief has resigned. He made a comparison of the Nintendo supporters at E3 to a skinhead rally. So they persecuted him and he left. Thanks the archvile

Mr. Justice,

"The bottom line is, Nintendo did little more than show up, and everyone is cheering like a bunch of skinheads at a Nazi rally..."

Wow, that's a serious case of unprofessionalism there. How did your editors let that pass? How are you even hired at IGN? Oh wait, I forgot, they're pretty much hiring anything these days, extremely poor writers even.

I sent him that letter weeks back when the story went up, ROFFLE. He got owned by the public.

Man, there are a lot of bullshit gaming sites (Daily Radar, GameSpy, and IGN, to name a few). I'm thankful for the Shack, which lets us see only the good stuff, and judge it for what it's worth.

I don't know what the big deal is. I'm looking forward to GameCube but I surely wasn't offended to the point of petitioning to fire somebody because of that harmless comment. In fact I asn't offended at all. The stupid fucking IGN readership, and not the editor, is to blame.

I don't see the problem here; if a company doesn't want such editorial coming from their representatives, they should remove (or at least warn) the individuals generating it.
