Jack Thompson's Life Gets Harder

Well, Jack Thompson, (in)famous violent videogame critic, has just been dealt many hard blows against him.
First, a few weeks ago, Game Politics showed that his forum persona was far from the best.
First, Wikipedia, the user-based encyclopedia, has a pretty bad entry for him (here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Thompson_%28attorney%29). It shows that his history has been one that could easily put along side that of Micheal Moore or Ann Coulter.

Next, Penny Arcade today has put up their impression of him, which has few good comments (comic: http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php?date=2005-10-14).

Last, but far from least, the National Institute on Media & Family has officially disavowed Thompson (story: http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=12259). Appearently, they really don't like him using their name. Well, considering the Wikipedia entry, I can't blame them.

In a previous entry, I wrote:
"My proposal to Thompson: Stop, just stop. You already have made yourself look like an *** (most notablly, here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/gamepolitics/96454.html). Do this any longer, you may get onto Bernard Goldberg's list of 100."
It may be too late.
