Video Games–Framing

1.) Remember the Columbia shooting? The shooters were said to be disturbed and unstable due to playing violent video games. I remember this being pushed as a media story, and can’t help but notice how the media failed to recognize other factors of the boys lives. Can video games truly be blamed for things like school shootings?

2.) Where does the gaming industry get all it’s money? It’s a more profitable market than the film industry right now, why?

3.) How is video gaming changing the world for younger children?
