Fox News: Violence In Chicago Caused By GTA IV Ads

City officials lobbied successfully to pull GTA IV ads off of city buses and metro stops in Chicago. The reason? Shit was causing violence, yo! Well, that’s the rather muddy point intimated by a Fox News television report account of an increase in violence over the weekend. CBS, on the other hand, seemed to think it had something more to do with guns and gang violence. Neither news outlet felt the violence had anything to do with the catcher-on-catcher violence between Michael Barrett and A.J. Pierzynski during this 2006 Cubs-White Sox game. We just think it’s fucking awesome.
