CC confirmed that they added more bleeps to NYT. But still unclear what that means, or how much was intentional:

Oh then thank God I got DVR at the beginning of the month. My work shift ends at 10 on Wednesday nights, and if I had missed this completely I would have been pissed.
As far as censoring in the episode goes, I can't tell whose fault it was, or if it was a combination (I think Matt and Trey censored the last few monologues, or made them have to be censored, once they figured CC would go all sissy on them yet again) in the original, but the decision not to re-air it is all CC/Viacom. Matt and Trey would have no say in that situation.

something still doesn't add up about this, the episode makes no sense if they didn't do the censorship intentionally
Are we gonna have to wait for the DVD release of this season to find out the truth? Hell, will we even get the truth then?

Mitch Connor is my new favorite South Park character.

Holy crap, I just watched that one earlier today because I remembered Muhammad being uncensored and wanted to make sure I wasn't just imagining it. Heck, I think Comedy Central aired it a couple of weeks ago, and I don't think he was censored.
I'm more than a bit miffed at all of this.

Hey Comedy Central:
Hey stupid muslim extremists:![]()
As it turns out, the main revolutionmuslim.com domain is down, but they do have a blog over at blogspot.
http://revolutionmuslim.blogspot.com/
They recently have posted some long rambling response, which basically says, "You will force us into violence if you keep mocking us." It's the old "how dare you call us violent! We'll kill you for that!" defense.
You can report their blog under "Report Abuse" and violating the Terms of Service as Hate or Violence at the top of their page. If enough people report them, I predict it will be taken down.
Feel free to post this blog domain at whatever other (political) sites you may visit.

Yeah, I still have questions. The bleeping was way over the top, especially during the last speech. It was so over the top, I assumed it was intentional. They weren't just bleeping out the references, they bleeped the entire damn thing. I was cracking up and had to turn my TV volume down. It ended with Stan saying "Yeah," which to me seemed intentionally humorous as well.
If this is really just CC, they should have just pulled the whole episode. What's the point of even airing it with that much bleeping, if not to make a point about censorship in some ironic way?

Perhaps CC was forced to censor it by "big brutha". ???
Perhaps CC went over the top with censorship BECAUSE they were pissed that "the gub'ment" told them to censor it to avoid "turr'ist attacks". ???
Just playing devil's advocate here... carry on.
