I read it on a few gaming sites already. Yeah, a very stupid move. The guy just doesn't like criticism. It doensn't even really make sense either.
Perhaps the guy so completely doubts that there could actually be a "gaming news network" online (after all, they are JUST GAMES :D) that he assumes ALL these sites are the creation, in some back alley way, of major game companies to sell the line. If that's his conspiracy his actions make sense if you assume the premise.

Mind you, EVERY SINGLE PREMISE THE GUY OPERATES UNDER IS FALSE.
For example, that article shows that yet again, not a single video game was found in this guy's dorm room. They DID find that rather than Counter Strike training this guy to fire a gun (which by the way is crazy in it's own right, my own aim is terrible with the real thing), actually he trained using, well, a REAL GUN, on a shooting range. If this guy has any integrity (integrity meaning he is consistent with his own beliefs and those beliefs don't internally conflict), he should instead be requesting the banning of shooting ranges. I wonder, will he?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
