I find it so strange that Simpsons is very obviously Liberal but appears on Conservative Fox.

PO1 John Miller, Fox is fair and balanced; it has sources from across the entire spectrum.

There is a reason for that. When the show was first conceived, it was in the contract that Fox themselves could not censor the show, hence the liberal nature of the show and the constant jabs at Fox/fox news itself. this was in part because Fox was an unknown network at the time and looking to buy up as many shows as possible. "Married...With Children", went after Fox News all the time as they had the same type of agreement.

I think its a brilliant play since comedy is the purest form of entertainment in the world. I say that as someone who has done comedy for about 20 years, and holds nothing back (polotics, military, relationships, race, sex, gender, its all on the table). I follow the same formula that the Zucker brothers took with "Airplane!" if you offend everyone equally, then fewer people are offended, and those who are offended are free to walk away
