One: remember when Comedy Central wouldn't allow Matt and Trey to show a cartoon of Mohammad and everybody was like "this is an example of creeping sharia" and then it turned out that much of the media ended up self-censoring even the most benign Islam-related jokes? And how that last part was right now? Two: turns out, they really just hate Family Guy:
