Where's the poll that asks if $cino and Tom Cruise have gone too far with their continual litigations?

Once CNN believes a show, or a person, to have a hint of conservativism or witty thought about "reality" they'll run a BS poll such as this to pander to their prozac munching liberal audience.

Oh I see. Suddenly CNN is worried about attacks on religion. How refreshing! /s/

South Park has more courage than CNN. Where is the poll that asks if CNN was wrong NOT to show the Prince of Pedophilia Cartoons?

80% no. If they were trying to be nice, they boogered it up as bad as they have their own ratings.

Sorry but the Virgin Mary bleeding out her @ss was too far for me. Totally unneccessary and unfunny. The Scientology episode, all they did was report what they believe in.

That's not the poll on CNN anymore. It's been replaced with one about rebuilding New Orleans.

They go too far in EVERYTHING.



That's why they have a fan base.

They weren't getting the result they wanted.

Keep in mind that Legacy Media runs bent polls not to
discover public opinion, but to drive it - "push polls".

They are always in spin mode, but you can detect pure
propaganda mode when the story leads off with:
"According to a poll ..."

Does "South Park" go to far in satirizing religion? Yes.

Do you have to watch it? No.

Problem solved.

This has been covered by others umpteen times but I'll say it again...the Virgin Mary did NOT have blood coming of anywhere. It was a STATUE of the Virgin Mary that was depicted as bleeding. There is a difference. Further, the whole point was to mock those who set up and worship shrines to her...like when people claim to see an image of Mary in chipped paint on the side of a building, or in a puddle of rain with an oil slick. It's fair game in my opinion.
