Kyle Rittenhouse Launches New Video Game Where Players Shoot ‘Fake News Turkeys’


Kyle Rittenhouse announced the release of a new video game Thursday in which you can shoot “fake news turkeys” with all proceeds going to his ongoing effort to sue media outlets for “defamation.”
Rittenhouse collaborated with video game developer Mint Studios, whose CEO said that “We had to step in to help Kyle after we saw what was done to him.”

Rittenhouse was 17 when he asked his mother to drive him across state lines from their home in Illinois to Wisconsin, where he brought a semi-automatic rifle to Kenosha on Aug. 25, 2020. He claimed it was an “effort to protect businesses” as riots broke over the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a black man who was left paralyzed from the waist down.
Kyle Rittenhouse crossed state lines and killed two unarmed men with an AR-15 that he illegally possessed.

First-person shooter games had been a talking point in Rittenhouse’s trial, as the prosecution tried to paint him as violent and easily influenced by the imagery in the games he played. In his game, players assume a cartoon version of Rittenhouse to shoot the turkeys, which say “Fake News” and “MSDNC,” a right-wing moniker for MSNBC.
