San Francisco - Atom Entertainment, a short films and online games company recently acquired by Viacom's MTV for $200 million, on Friday launched a NewsGames channel, which will feature online games based on current events. Hosted by the company's AddictingGames site, the channel will initially host titles like "Zidane Headbutt," "Bush Backrub" and "Cheney's Fury." San Francisco-based Atom said it will develop dozens of new titles each year, and promote the best user-generated games that mock popular headlines and cultural topics.
