South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone: Sorry, but I call "bullshit"
Dear Trey and Matt,

Insulting Christians...again...REALLY was the BEST way to go about teaching Comedy Central a lesson. I'll bet they NEVER dare to fuck with YOU bad boys AGAIN. You're so fucking AWESOME I just can't STAND it. SERIOUSLY...you just fucking ROCK.

Nice way to strike vengeance, you worthless, juvenile motherfuckers. Biting the hand that feeds you and proving that you're more ignorant that those who would censor you accomplishes JACK SHIT.


:grr:

'South Park' aims at censors, hits Bush, Jesus
Show gets back at Comedy Central for restrictions

NEW YORK (AP) -- Banned by Comedy Central from showing an image of the Islamic prophet Mohammed, the creators of "South Park" skewered their own network for hypocrisy in the cartoon's most recent episode.

The comedy -- in an episode aired during Holy Week for Christians -- instead featured an image of Jesus Christ defecating on President Bush and the American flag.

In an elaborately constructed two-part episode of their Peabody Award-winning cartoon, "South Park" creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker intended to comment on the controversy created by a Danish newspaper's publishing of caricatures of Mohammed. Muslims consider any physical representation of their prophet to be blasphemous.

When the cartoons were reprinted in newspapers worldwide in January and February, it sparked a wave of protests primarily in Islamic countries.

Anyone really think Comedy Central would censor Muhammad but let them keep Jesus in there? No fucking way. Yet another elaborate publicity stunt.
