This is where I might be reading in and want a check...I find they tend to really "hype" those artists that challange common notions, and they even...

...Touched upon that in the first topic on the Marina Abramovic's exhibit at MOMA - how her doing this performance art in a dictatorship was so courageous and brave and thought-provoking....
...Then in the second segment on South Park, Dana and Stephen basically thought the boys were creating problems without consideration of those who would be potentially put in danger. (ie, Viacom employees)
At least Julia said that she was uncomfortable with them basically saying that SP should have censored itself more, which brought them back for a bit, but closed on a Stephen rant that took it back to the beginning of the segment.
I just was expecting a lot more from them on this topic. Least of all that they ignored the elephant in the room...That being the danger factor and what the root of it was.
Just feels like a different artist on a different topic would be given so much more "leeway" by the group.
