Sony finally owns up to graffiti campaign

Looks like all of the recent bad press around the now infamous PSP graffiti campaign has inspired Wired magazine to do a little investigative reporting.

And they've uncovered some interesting factoids:

• Cities targeted in the campaign include New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Miami, according to Sony spokeswoman Molly Smith
• Sony says it's paying businesses and building owners for the right to graffiti their walls. Casa Maria was paid $100 for two weeks' use of its wall, according to co-owner Mario Arana.

$100? We think Sony should pay out a bit more than that for their ad space, especially now that folks in the affected neighborhoods now know that their easily bought neighbors were willing participants.

We bet they're not invited to the block party anymore.
