"South Park" airs censored episode after threat [Caves to Peaceful Religion]

Satirical animated TV show "South Park" beeped out the words Prophet Muhammad and plastered its Wednesday episode with the word "CENSORED" after being issued a grim warning by a U.S. Muslim group.

The irreverent comedy show on Comedy Central also substituted a controversial image seen last week of the Prophet Muhammad in a bear outfit with one of Santa Claus in the same costume.

It was not immediately clear if the move was a bid to tread carefully following the warning against the "South Park" creators, or if they were poking fun at the fuss.

Actually it was Comedy Central that caved.....again.

The headline was “”South Park” airs censored episode after threat”

If Christians made similar threats and had people around the world backing them up, would the media finally treat Christians with the respect we deserve?

Hmmm...

I don’t look at it as caving. They made their point very effectively: look how successfully Muslims are at stifling free speech.

Whatever happened, the episode has served a good purpose.

A cartoon show is doing more to remind Americans of their enemy than is the government.

And juxtaposing the violence of Muslims against the tolerance of all the other major religions whose central figures were skewered unmercifully.

altered headlines cause to duplicate posts.

I’m more surprised that CC hasn’t kicked them clear off the channel, but I guess they like the ratings and will try to appease the muslim groups instead.

Comedy Central is the one that censored out the “Mohammads” like a swear word.

[Wilderness Conservative]

I agree. Last night’s episode was brilliant. Far better to make the islamos looks like idiots than to make fun of Mohamed.

Read that thugs. I'm no fan of "South Park" but death threats are way out of line. If this Muslim group did that maybe a visit from law enforcement is in order.

Viacommie, parent corp to Communist Central and SeeBS News, caved.

So if Sarah Palin threatened Comedy Central they’d stop making jokes about her?

Or is this a double standard because liberals bow to Islamonazism at every turn?

[chris haney]

Did Matt and Trey cave or was it the upper brass at comedy central? Either way it is a bit disappointing.

Compare media coverage of these Islamist threats to the fake but accurate media accounts of “extremists” in the Tea Party.

The Prophet Muhammad was/is an ass and a pedophile. There, I said it and I eagerly await their assault on my home.. I'm pretty good a 200+ yards.

So does that mean now that the prophet [bleep]’s name is now a swear word. Seems kinda apropriate if you ask me.

[mockingbyrd]

I thought that was the point. Because Tom Cruise was censored too once he has that transfusion. And then the whole moral of the story was bleeped. I thought the were being over the top on purpose.
