The 'full frontal nudity and graphic sex acts' report run by FOX News is still causing a stir, with angry gamers now turning their venom towards psychologist Cooper Lawrence who gave a damning (and innacurate) overview of the game's supposedly rude content.
Since her comments, Lawrence has seen a severe backlash directed towards her via an Amazon product back for her self-help book.

While Electronic Arts has dispatched a fervent letter to FOX News regarding its claims that sci-fi role-playing game Mass Effect contains full frontal nudity and acts of graphic sex, members of the gaming community have opted to pursue more direct and damaging action against contributing psychologist and writer Cooper Lawrence.
Specifically, Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk has recently seen a sudden influx of reader reviews on product pages attributed to Lawrences book The Cult of Perfection: Making Peace with Your Inner Overachiever after she participated in the scathing attack against Mass Effect.

Bye bye book sales, bye bye career, bye bye Cooper. Do us all a favour and burn your degree you got out of a vending machine.
Edit: Oh my god! She has 375 one-star reviews on her Amazon page. She sure has pissed off alot of people!

I was disgusted to get this book and find that not only did it devote entire chapters to graphic sexual discussions, but it even had illustrations of nudity and discussions of violence. I know this book isn't marketed towards children and only adults are supposed to be able to buy it, but as a parent I feel too incompetent to monitor my kids' behavior all the time- or any time for that matter.
Having this book in my home made it even harder (!) to be a parent because I constantly had to supervise and spend time with my kids to make sure they didn't sift through the pages and see the full frontal nudity spread in the center. Quite frankly, Lawrence's nudity left a bad taste in my mouth and I was rather upset that no one warned me about the difficulties this book would present for parents.
Disappointed :-(

All I can do is laugh, and say "pwnd". With hundreds of reviews like that, she'll regret doing what she did.
"LOL's
