Rowsdower70 4,513 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 greenween and Justin 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Justin 8,183 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. RickR, LeeJ07, Rowsdower70 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rowsdower70 4,513 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 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LeeJ07 966 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RickR 14,918 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. greenween, Rowsdower70 and LeeJ07 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rowsdower70 4,513 Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 I would have thought so too, Rick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
