Charlie Kirk Was A Good Sport. Comedy Central's Decisionmakers Are Cowards.

Charlie Kirk talking to Fox News about the South Park episode parodying him:

I'm excited to watch it because, look, we as conservatives need to be able to take a joke, right? We shouldn't take ourselves so seriously ... that's what it's all about, being in public life and, you know, making a difference. And I'm gonna have a good spirit about it. I'll watch it. I'm going to laugh at it ...

Per The Arizona Republic:

In the wake of the death of conservative media personality Charlie Kirk, Comedy Central pulled the rerun of the "South Park" episode "Got A Nut" in which Cartman imitates Kirk. ... In its off weeks, Comedy Central has re-aired Season 27's previous episodes in chronological order. Those still hooked up to cable hoping to catch the rerun saw Episode 2 replaced with Episode 1 of the most current season.
