As for South Park controversies, these are generally about things the show is not even attempting to hide. Trying to show Muhammed is not getting crap past the radar, it is kicking the radar and daring them to do something about it (which they did). Vulgarity and racism? No attempt at hiding any of that. Parodying Scientology and mormonism? Entire episodes revolve around this, very explicitly. Suggesting characters are gay/murderers/rapists/insane/brain dead/what have you, all part of the show, and all very much in the open.

In short, these South Park controversies do not arise because the show is trying to hide them, they arise because the show has no radar to speak of (or pretends not to have one). Remember the disclaimer: this show should not be watched by anyone.
