Zogby: 71% Say No to Censoring South Park

According to a new Zogby poll, 71% of those asked stated that Comedy Central should not have censored last week's episode of South Park featuring a depiction of the Prophet Mohammed. Not only did the netowrk edit the image of Mohammed but also bleeped out his name and a speech about censorship. Talk about something out of Fahrenheit 451.

 So according to this, 27% of Democrats support the decision to censor South Park instead of betraying 'sensibilities.' Although, to somewhat of their credit, 60% of Democrats oppose the censorship. Republicans are nearly unanimous against this attack on free speech in the name of political correctness.
