Smarmy Billy Mitchell Makes (Pointless) Appreance on Recent Today Show Segment

Mitchell is such an opportunist. How much did they pay him to be on this show? Lil' Poison also shows little depth. I'd be interested in seeing his report card. It's really painful watching reporters, who know little about games, talk about them. Reminds me of my mother when she tries to sound cool.

Billy: Only when someone like you comes along and says play for me.

"Someone like you......."

Billy pwned the reported without him even knowing it!

Well either that or Billy was being raciest. lol.

Comment by Bryan R on July 8, 2007 at 8:07pm: Forget Billy Mitchell, what's with the interviewer's lack of reaction when the 9-year-old tells her his favorite game in Halo? I guess the media believes it's alright for minors to play M-rated "murder simulators" as long as it makes for good television. HYPOCRITES!!!

Comment by ssj100matt on July 8, 2007 at 1:09pm: This segment was really pointless and all but from a person who had to make segments like this, you have to appeal to your demographic... If you think about it, who really watches the Today Show? Homemakers and occasional viewers who are watching in a waiting rooms/business... So you can assume that more than half of the people watching don't know a thing about games other than what they see on TV and news... Very little research is done for these segments, and 99.9% of the time Interns are the ones doing it for the reporters... And since it was live and outside, they only had one shot at it with 10 pages worth of notes condensed into a short paragraph...

But as for Billy he knew the segment was BS, thats why he responded to that question "I only do this when people like you tell me to"... And i am sure he didn't like being dragged out from Massachusetts to NYC, just answer a few dumb questions and play a game he plays all the time...

Comment by Kdog96 on July 7, 2007 at 3:05pm: Painful is exactly the word Shima! That segment totally failed. The producer must have been shitting himself watching this debacle unfold on live tv. Should have had Hal Sparks do the interviews. Love how the female reporter says how her parents would giver her a handful of quarters and send her off to the "video game place".
