I like how you mixed in a screenshot of these forums.

Good work. But i think you should ask your superiors if you could do a major piece on this topic. There could be much more material that could be done and discussed to allow viewers to form an educated opinion about this whole thing.

Who knows you could become the defacto expert on it in your local juristiction, because i think this topic will grow with time as far as TV news is concerned.

The clip of the rep equating gambling and drug dealing really makes the guy look like an idiot (to me at least).

Well, I didn't cherry-pick the bite. The Republican arguments were ripe with comments like this, i.e. "click a mouse, bet the house." Still, I wonder if the average viewer thought his comment was that out of line.
