News anchor slammed after telling teen gamer who beat Tetris for the first time ever to ‘go outside’

Sky News host, Jayne Secker's scornful remark to a 13-year-old whiz kid who made retro gaming history by being the first player to conquer Nintendo's edition of "Tetris" unleashed a wave of public outrage on social media this week. She suggested the youngster should "get some fresh air" after her announcement on Willis Gibson setting an unprecedented record in Tetris, shattering its game code. The flippant remark was made during her news broadcast and was met with bitter criticism by many internet users. They rebuked her as patronizing and disregarding the young Oklahoman's groundbreaking achievement, an endeavor previously deemed infeasible since the game's 1985 release on Nintendo Entertainment System. Respected gaming communities, such as the UK's "Nintendo South Wales," stood up for Gibson, stating that Secker’s "embarrassingly naïve mockery of Willis Gibson’s triumph confirms the unfortunate persistence of gaming bias." A YouTuber “Cynical Reviews” sternly criticized Secker by tweeting, “This condescending comment to a kid who’s made a remarkable achievement is embarrassment to the core.” Another user, “Optimus” sarcastically mocked the veteran presenter suggesting she was envious of the 13-year-old's feat. A well-known Twitch streamer “Punz” lambasted Secker, tweeting, “It annoys me to see people like this; this young lad did something never accomplished before. He has astonishingly succeeded.”
