I thought they would go just the opposite direction, and make an episode that was completely politically correct and harmless. Something so over the top it played like a PBS cartoon for 3 year olds. Just to demonstrate what the show would be like if Comedy Central caved in to every group that had a beef with it.

However, it seems they are just going to ignore the controversy completely...

That's a good thought. That might be a good way to get Viacom executives to pay attention by hitting them where it hurts...in the ratings and advertising pocketbook.

Make an episode so lame and bland that NOBODY watches or cares. Let's see how they react. Maybe they can just broadcast an NHL games and get a .04 Nielsen rating.

Of course, a show about cripples will get some ratings. So I don't think they are going there. But you're right.
