Tasteless Censorship

American Airlines in Japan has blocked South Park's website in their Admiral's Club. Yeah, it's their club and web service people are using. However, the reason they've blocked the site is because it is, in their opinion, tasteless.

When you try to get on to the site, this is what comes up:


South Park is tasteless...but not a girl in an ill-fitting suit in heels and a mini-skirt? According to my sources, the previous picture on American Airlines' site was a girl in heels, mini-skirt and top that was barely even a top. Is this a joke? Are they poking fun at their opinion of South Park by posting a tasteless picture of a girl?

All I can say is that if I was in Japan and really wanted to go on the South Park's site and this popped-up , I would be seriously annoyed because: 1) the hypocrisy is idiotic and 2) South Park can be really funny. Mmmmmm-kay?
