Katie Couric asks for “the positive side” of violent video games via Twitter
So apparently Katie Couric ran an hour-long piece about video games and how they ruin lives and make some people kill people last Monday, which upset some gamers. So Katie decided to rectify the situation by asking gamers what they think the positive aspects of violent games are… via Twitter!

She says she’s going to use the replies in an upcoming show, but we don’t know what the show was about. I think we all know by this point that this argument is useless to have. People who run specials about video games being a catalyst for violence but neglect to do the same for some significantly larger contributing factors aren’t people I care much to debate with!
