Wow BRTD, I never would have guessed that you hated South Park.
ikr!  You'd think BRTD with his libertarian sensibilities would be a big fan of SP.  He really should keep us up to date on which shows he likes, THE FORUM NEEDS TO KNOW DAMN IT!

Wait. Are you actually admitting that South Park is not balanced, is not ever left-wing, and there's no reason any liberal should ever like it?

First, your idea of political balance is 100% left-wing propaganda.  Second, with regard to liberals liking South Park, if there was a staunchly conservative satire/comedy show that was even half as good as South Park or the Daily Show, I'd watch it pretty regularly.  I don't see political disagreement as the deciding factor in whether or not I like a show.  If you are incapable of seeing value in things that don't conform to your political beliefs, I feel sorry for you because your missing out on some great stuff for a pretty dumb reason.

No, that's what I want shows I watch to be. But dead0man has argued South Park is not right-leaning at all and it's actually a balanced show because they've done a few episodes making fun of religious right crazies. Such a bold and rarely attacked target after all definitely means the show is willing to go way out on a limb to attack right wingers too. But now yeah he's basically admitting the show is in fact right-wing and hating Pat Robertson does not make you a left winger or a "moderate".

Second, with regard to liberals liking South Park, if there was a staunchly conservative satire/comedy show that was even half as good as South Park or the Daily Show, I'd watch it pretty regularly.  I don't see political disagreement as the deciding factor in whether or not I like a show.  If you are incapable of seeing value in things that don't conform to your political beliefs, I feel sorry for you because your missing out on some great stuff for a pretty dumb reason.

It's not really possible to enjoy The Daily Show if you don't agree with it. Because the conclusions Stewart brings up wouldn't be valid. As for the "great stuff" I'm missing out on because I won't watch conservative media, like what? Remember I think even South Park's apolitical stuff is absolute trash, so that doesn't apply.

South Park isn't a right-wing or left-wing show.  It does have a distinct Libertarian lean (although even that's been much less pronounced lately), but again, I see no reason why that should prevent one from enjoying the show.  You've also said that you if a show has any satire that isn't 100% left-wing propaganda then you would consider the entire show to be worthless trash (i.e. you'd hate an apolitical South Park episode because the show's satirical elements aren't 100% left-wing propaganda).  Regarding the Daily Show, I highly doubt one needs to be left-leaning to enjoy it, especially given that it is hardly left-wing propaganda. 

Btw, if all you watch is things that are 100% left-wing propaganda, you're stuck with either crappy shows like The Newsroom or people like Bill Maher who are so awful that they are like Glenn Beck's caricature of a liberal.
