Word going around the net is that the latest Gnarls Barkley video "Run" has been banned by MTV and it's not because of the video's content. MTV banning a video? What year are we in again? And what exactly could cause a video to be banned when it has nothing to do with content? Apparently the Gnarls Barkley/Justin Timberlake collaboration has the potential to induce seizures in some people due to the strobe like effects running rampant through the video. No word yet on what if any fixes will be made so that the video can hit the airwaves, but I have to imagine that anything featuring Justin Timberlake won't stay "banned" for long on MTV.
To get prospective on the news, I called up Japan. Yes the country. They offered no comment and claimed to not have a clue about this so called "seizure gate". Sadly our interview was cut short after the person went into epileptic shock after turning on the TV. Go figure.
But fear not loyal readers, I have procured the dangerous footage and am prepared to share it with you... ready?
So there you have it. If it induces seizures don’t blame me; blame Gnarls, or Japan. Pick your poison… it’s all deadly (literally).
