Jack Thompson disbarred!

And the computer gaming world rejoices!

The article: http://www.gamepolitics.com/2008/07/09/we-have-judge039s-report-recommending-permanent-disbarment-jack-thompson

He responds: http://kotaku.com/5054801/thompson-responds-to-disbarment

And Slashdot: http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/09/25/1822207

He also has to pay $40k+ in fines. He has 30 days to appeal, I'm sure that'll go over well.

Link indicates that the wiki pages have been deleted. Hmmm.

Ah, that's because of the parenthesis screwing up the link. Try copy-pasting it.

This is good news. But I'm seriously doubting he's just going to disappear. And I'm sure FOX News will still refer to him as an "Expert".

About time. He should have vanished a long time ago.
