Absurd Catholics spitting blood
Catholic Bishops in New Zealand are appealing to the High Court against a ruling by the Broadcasting Standards Authority that the South Park Bloody Mary episode is too absurd to be offensive.
The authority did not uphold the 35 complaints it received about the show – including one from the bishops, saying the show was “of such a farcical, absurd and unrealistic nature” that it did not breach good taste standards.
