Ubi's E3 Presenter Reacts to 'the haters'

Aisha Tyler, the host of Ubisoft‘s conference at E3 2012, has retaliated to criticism she received online following the event.

The actress, who in the mid-2000s appeared in the likes of Friends, 24 and CSI, attracted a deluge of negative comments regarding her appearance last week. Some stepped far over the line and resorted to racist abuse.

She deemed the views of many (who claimed she was not a gamer) to be unfair, and so responded via a strongly-worded (and long-winded) post on Facebook:

BRB, Tumblr. Going to go stab some folks.

Also “long-winded”… So we’re limited to characters now when we speak out against sexism and racism?
