Recently something happened where many expected a ballistic reaction from Muslims in general - The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam (Peace and Blessings be upon him) was depicted in a two part south park episode.

The media was salivating at the expected reaction, the network broadcasting it was cowering in fear - it censored the second of the two episodes to sucha degree that even speeches that did not mention Islam or the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam (Peace and Blessings be upon him) werew bleeped out.
