Salon.com Technology | Coming up next: Ambushed on "Donahue"! Discussing violence in video games and what real effects it could have; along with the treatment that this guy got when he appeared on the tv show Donahue.
Sample quote: 90 percent of American boys play video games, so it's a pretty good bet that if the killer is an adolescent boy, they can find the proof that he was a gamer. ... Banning games doesn't put a stop to domestic violence, doesn't ensure that mentally unstable kids get the help they need, doesn't stop bullying in the hallways, and doesn't deal with the economic inequalities and racial tensions that are the real source of violence in American culture. ... But, during my 15 minutes on "Donahue," I never got to say any of this.
