“You want me to insult you?” MacFarlane quipped. “OK, you supported the war in Iraq,” he said to raucous applause.

MacFarlane offered insight into the show’s constant tug-of-war with censorship.

Ah, yes, the FCC persecution complex. Interestingly enough, Seth, South Park has no problems whatsoever with the FCC. he told the audience that much of the scrutiny placed on network shows focuses on the amount of inappropriate language, as well as “[excrement] jokes.”

Yeah, well, Seth, if you want to make money out of the public airwaves, you have to play the public game. Don't like it? Go to cable. Or HBO.

I don't think it's an FCC persecution complex, most of the time I've heard Seth complain about being censored it's the Fox censors. And South Park is on cable, still immune from the FCC for now.
