I didn't realize both of them were huge anti-video game advocates. G-Mod, if you see this, PLEASE don't feel the need to post a huge FOX News article in here about it. Just make a link to a thread in the Poli-Forum and I'll get the hint.
Meanwhile, this is Mortal Kombat we're talking about. The original "violent" video game. I'd say it's more believable that Warner Bros/DC Comics didn't want their characters (who are such a HUGE attraction to the innocent little kiddies = sarcasm) connected to overt violence. That's a guess, but it's perfectly plausible...
