Ross Douthat on Comedy Central’s censorship of South Park:

But there’s still a sense in which the “South Park” case is particularly illuminating. Not because it tells us anything new about the lines that writers and entertainers suddenly aren’t allowed to cross. But because it’s a reminder that Islam is just about the only place where we draw any lines at all.

Trey Parker, Matt Stone and Jon Stewart are the only people on television that say something worth listening to and with any courage. It’s unfortunate the network that employs them is too afraid of threats from murderous idiots to let them say it.
