Lieberman denounces Grand Theft Auto

Democratic presidential hopeful Joseph Lieberman describes Rockstar"s Grand Theft Auto series as horrendous during a forum at Dartmouth College.

According to a recent Reuters report, Democratic presidential hopeful Joseph Lieberman launched an attack on the Grand Theft Auto games during a women"s forum at Dartmouth College yesterday. The Connecticut senator, who led the fight in Congress against excessive sex and violence in the entertainment industry, described Grand Theft Auto as "horrendous" and said that Rockstar Games should be more responsible. "The player is rewarded for attacking a woman, pushing her to the ground, kicking her repeatedly and then ultimately killing her, shooting her over and over again," said Lieberman. "I call on the entertainment companies--they"ve got a right to do that, but they have a responsibility not to do it if we want to raise the next generation of our sons to treat women with respect."
