A fist bump?

A pound?

A terrorist fist jab?

With those words, Fox News talking head E.D. Hill ignited a bit of a controversy last month. Hill was referring to a small, celebratory bumping of fists between Barack and Michelle Obama. The "terrorist fist jab" comment would eventually lead to an on-air apology from Hill.

A parody video has placed Obama in a Mortal Kombat setting with the terrorist fist jab as his special attack.

GP: Pretty funny stuff and we thank reader Scott Snell for the heads-up...

GamePolitics readers will likely recall the tragic killing of 7-year-old Zoe Garcia last December.

The child died from injuries received at the hands of Lamar Roberts, the boyfriend of her sister, Heather Trujillo, 17, who was babysitting for Zoe at the time.

At some point the pair apparently made comments to investigators that they were acting out moves from Mortal Kombat. However, as we reported earlier this year, Heather's aunt believes that Roberts made up the Mortal Kombat story to "look tough" (see: Is Brutal "Mortal Kombat" Murder Lacking the Mortal Kombat Part?).

As reported by Colorado's 9news, Trujillo has received an 18-year sentence which will be suspended if she successfully completes six years in a program for young offenders. She must also testify against Roberts at his upcoming trial.

GP: This case is a terrible tragedy. But beyond that it demonstrates the media's focus on the sensational - and perhaps untrue - Mortal Kombat aspect. What has not received nearly as much coverage is that this was a completely dysfunctional family situation, one that was well known to family service authorities in at least two states.
