Bill Donohue’s Catholic League responded to last night’s “South Park” with this brief press release:
I have no idea why “South Park” creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker caricature me as a heartless thug. In any event, I stand convicted and have no defense. Now I have to get back to business—I hear someone just took some liberties with the Easter Bunny.
I actually think that was a joke. It certainly was a gentler treatment of Hollywood than Donohue has given in the past. I still can’t find the entire episode on the web, but the “St. Peter” clip at ComedyCentral.com talks about the show’s premise that St. Peter—the first pope—was in fact a rabbit.
