Even South Park!
In this NY Times article we learn that "South Park" creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker apologized to viewers for having used material from a web video they viewed on the web site Collegehumor.com. “It’s just because we do the show in six days, and we’re stupid and we just threw it together,” Matt Stone, who created “South Park” with Trey Parker, said Friday in a telephone interview. “But in the end, there are some lines that we had to call and apologize for.” (David Itzkoff, NYTimes, 10/22/2010).
