The Onion has a great article about the increasing influence the Wii is having on violence involving young children.

“According to the American Psychological Association, prolonged exposure to cutesy video-game violence can increase aggressive frolicking and angry fluttering in children. Paula Greer, co-chair of the APA Committee on Violence in Video Games and Interactive Media, warned that Wii games reward players for explosive girly behavior rather than enforcing proper negative social consequences.”

This is really grave news. And to think that we all thought the Wii was such an innocent console…

The onion is (and has always been) a satirical news site.  It’s adult in nature and often pun-ishling crude.  Ye have been warn’d.
