It is really nice for furries to be presented in a good way for once... I know a lot of people who watch G4. It's nice that people won't always associate furries with having a sexual fetish or anything.

Haha Cool  :) My first thought when i saw the Subject title was ''Oh no.......''
And then i saw how they didn't portray furries bad. And i was like ''Wow, what an amazing show''
mainly because people who made it where so open minded. Heh, Guess the people of this planet are starting to open their minds a little. finally,

I wouldn't post something which portrayed us badly, I don't trust it wouldn't result in a flame war.

Another article, interesting portrayal, seems to be mostly neutral but from the UK media this time. Although not about these forums in particular, I want to keep it all in a single thread.

This article is great, it's pretty much spot on!
