Rowsdower70 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Billy Mitchell apparently had sued Cartoon Network for a character he feels was based on him, and shows him in a negative light. While its a rather silly lawsuit, Billy does have a point. The article makes for some fine readin' either way. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-11-24-donkey-kong-diva-denied-in-cartoon-network-depiction-lawsuit "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I like how the article mentions BM "lives in Hollywood" and fails to mention that he lives in Hollywood, FL. Big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowsdower70 Posted November 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I like how the article mentions BM "lives in Hollywood" and fails to mention that he lives in Hollywood, FL. Big difference. I honestly had never heard of the character, but it is obviously a parody of Mitchell. But hey, what do I know!? I'm just a nerd.

LeeJ07 Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Sure, the lawsuit is silly, but that article is very poorly written with regards to objectivity. That aforementioned omission that BM lives in Hollywood, *Florida* is a case in point. The article is blatantly painting BM as an out of touch jerk from Hollywood who has nothing better to do than waste money suing Cartoon Network. "I'd buy that for a dollar!" -Smash T.V.

RickR Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Pffft, that's not lawsuit worthy. He should take it as a compliment to be parodied like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowsdower70 Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 I would have thought so too, Rick. "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
