According to online technology news site Softpedia, Thompson wrote an e-mail to Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick's mother (Take-Two is Rockstar's parent company).
"Your son last week was reported to have said the following about Grand Theft Auto IV," the letter allegedly began. "'We've already received numerous reviews, and to a one, they are perfect scores. My mom couldn't write better reviews...' Taking your son's thought, I would encourage you either to play this game or have an adroit video gamer play it for you. Some of the latter gamers are on death row, so try to find one out in the civilian population who hasn't killed someone yet."
Jack Thompson was reached for confirmation, and as you'd expect, such a crazy story is incorrect. He sent the letter to Zelnick's attorney.
"I sent it to Strauss' attorney to make the point that if you drag your mother into your porn business pimping," Thompson told me by e-mail, [*sunglasses* --Fussbett] "you had better be prepared for blowback." [YEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! -- Fussbett] |
