Wednesday episode of “South Park” was supposed to contain a scene of the Muslim prophet Muhammad, in reference to the famous Danish Muhammad image that caused Islamic zealots to indulge in rioting, arson, and murder throughout the Islamic world. Instead, the episode featured an image of Jesus Christ defecating on President Bush and the American flag. Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of South Park, were indeed censored by Comedy Central. MSNBC reports:

Comedy Central said in a statement issued Thursday: “In light of recent world events, we feel we made the right decision.” Its executives would not comment further. As is often the case with Parker and Stone, they built “South Park” around the incident. In Wednesday’s episode, the character Kyle is shown trying to persuade a Fox network executive to air an uncensored “Family Guy” even though it had an image of Muhammad. “Either it’s all OK, or none of it is,” Kyle said. “Do the right thing.” The executive decides to strike a blow for free speech and agrees to show it. But at the point where Muhammad is to be seen, the screen is filled with the message: “Comedy Central has refused to broadcast an image of Muhammad on their network.” It is followed shortly by an image of Jesus Christ defecating on President Bush and the American flag.

Once again, Trey and Matt prove that you can make fun of everything, but not with everyone. Because some people still live in the Middle Ages.
