I am actually shocked that BBC would report something on this considering they love to blame games for the violence of teenagers.

I think you're confusing the BBC with tabloid publications.
Can't wait.
This seem to be a really promising expansion.

I haven't ever seen them talk about violence but they did come out with a pretty stupid episode of panorama that basically portrayed blizzard as selling a game that is intentionally just as addictive as a drug.

I don't think think the full episode is available anymore but it basically boils down to them talking to various experts and players that say addiction to a game isn't as much a problem as people think it is, but then they just ignore that and conclude that it is terribly and intentionally addictive anyway. It's probably the worst piece of journalism I think I've ever seen from the BBC.
Wow, they never do their research... It's not garrosh that runs the iron horde, it's grommash.

Temporarily ignoring the fact that you're mistaking US news outlets with BBC: their "Tech" section is pretty slow, and Warcraft is a pretty big name, so it's not totally out of the ordinary.
