Other Bloggers on the South Park Episode

This episode got terrific coverage in the blogosphere and forums; here are some reactions:

Malcontent:

Can you really be angry at the woefully undermedicated?

Well, yes. Infuriated, even. But the next best solution is to laugh these nutjobs off the national stage. Thank God for South Park.


Hot Air:

Good stuff, although when you’re aiming at a target this wide it’s hard to miss.


Ace of Spades:

The episode was okay, but didn't really savage the Truthers the way they've savaged the Mormons and the Scientologists. Why go so easy on them? Sure, they call them retarded a lot, but they also feature a character walking around with the main Truther URL for half the episode.


Wuzzadem tracks Denier reaction to the episode:

Looks like they've figured out our strategy: The best way to discredit these people is to get them to open their mouths in public.


Java Joe:

I thought it was a particularly funny episode, but that is due in part that I don't believe the 9/11 conspiracies. (I was listening to an excellent discussion on R U Sirius' show a couple of weeks ago about this very subject.)

Hmmm bg you might want to check your own blog where you cite the 655,000 dead without any critical comments (it's obviously wrong).

South Park loves 9/11 TV Fakery and orwellian 9/11 Truthlings love Censorship :)

bahahahahah they didn't understand South Park was mocking all of them.

(And in the invented plan, military planes were flown into the tower.)

"There's no such thing as bad publicity."

...Unless you're a republican.

Thanks for the link, Pat.

I find the 9/11 conspiracy movement a form of mental mind pollution. In the link I have in my article, the non-conspiratorial speaker told the other person that as a journalist he viewed that movement as a social movement and not as a serious journalistic endeavor.
