I Thought It Was Part Of The Spoof!

I was wrong! Being a fan of the popular Comedy Central series South Park I didn’t realize that the censorship of Muhammad in the last episode was really due to Comedy Central being a bunch of complete “douches” (to use a popular South Park slur). But apparently it was:

From WorldNetDaily:

The Comedy Central television network barred its popular “South Park” series from showing an image of the Islamic prophet Muhammad in last night’s episode but allowed a scene in which an image of Jesus Christ defecates on President Bush and the American flag.

Earlier today, conservative weblogs speculated about whether the episode’s reference to censorship was part of the edgy cartoon show’s gag, but a Comedy Central spokesman told Stephen Spruiell of National Review’s Media Blog the network itself made the decision to not show the image.

The network issued a statement, saying: “In light of recent world events, we feel we made the right decision.”
