Milwaukee Is Fresh Out Of News


That’s it. No murders. No traffic accidents. No weather of note. Nothing’s happening.

Chatting up.How else can anyone explain this: The subject of their latest hard-hitting investigative report is none other than PictoChat, the least interesting feature of the Nintendo DS, perhaps the biggest selling portable gaming system on Earth.

Why PictoChat? Because child molesters might use it to reach out and touch your children.

Check out the video here.

There is an additional write-up as well under the headline “Nintendo DS Attractive to Molesters.” Here’s an excerpt:

In the owners manual and on its website, Nintendo warns parents to talk to their children about Pictochat to make sure they don’t respond to messages from strangers, but FOX 6 found most parents don’t even know Nintendo DS has this feature because they haven’t read the manual.

Ahem. “Because they haven’t read the manual.” Indeed.

I’m just glad that this brilliant idea surfaced in Milwaukee instead of right here at home. It would just about break my heart to watch Bill Liss or Jim Strickland (no relation) to waste good airtime defending Atlanta’s children from a conjectured threat via a feature they hardly even use.

  1. I used to live in Milwaukee. I can personally vouch that, since Dahmer died, pickins been slim in the news department.

    At least they do the annual week long news broadcasts from the summerfest grounds.
