via http://digg.com/gaming/Fox_buys_IGN (http://digg.com/gaming/Fox_buys_IGN), which seems to get the story wrong by saying the deal is done already.

This game is part of the evil liberal conspiracy, so it gets a -1000000000/10.

I wonder if we'll see more advertising if the deal goes through.

Anything that gets the absolute horses asses out of control of IGN I'm all for.

There are more completely idiotic and out of touch mods and managers at IGN than I have run across on any website. That list includes democraticunderground.com too so it's really saying something.

Hey sweet, going from corporate to more corporate. IGN is the Borg: they find popular sites and assimilate them with unbalanced contracts.
