Parent Television Council to Fight Gaming Lobby

Following last week's news that the Entertainment Software Body (ESB) would be forming a PAC (political action committee) to lobby Congress, it is being reported today that the Parent Television Council will attempt to fight that lobbying effort.

Any public servant who cashes a check from the video game industry will be exposed by the PTC as taking a stand against families," said PTC president Tim Winter in a statement issued by the organization. "His or her actions will be communicated to constituents in his or her congressional district."

Political blackmail or legitimate effort? You decide and can comment on our forums.
