Hahaaaa.
The EA damage control is hilarious. We're supposed to think they're paragons of ethical practice because they've published a game with same-sex relationships?

I'm not even going to bother copy pasting, it would fill up the whole page and then some.

Those companies didn't get thousands of letters from homophobic nut-cases.
EA aren't paragons of ethical practice (there not even prentending to be really). They're just standing up for their developers creation and something that shouldn't even be an issue.

Dude, give me a break.
This is PR 101
Yesterday they win Worst Company in America, and today they just happen to defend gay people. Gay people are Bioware and EAs scape goat.
I wouldn't be surprise, I wouldn't be FUCKING surprised if EA said the ballot was being stuffed by homophobes on the Consumerists website.

I didn't argue that (the timing/PR side), but this isn't the first time EA/Bioware have had homophobic trouble concerning their games and they're sticking to their guns. Even though this is PR, they're still in the right.
