Comedy Central To Re-Air 'Passion of the Jew' South Park Episode

Comedy Central is set to re-air its 2004 “Passion of the Jew” South Park episode on Wednesday night, featuring the now-not-so-ironic out-of-control Mel Gibson, just a week and a half after the actor admitted to making anti-Semitic remarks during a drunk driving arrest in Malibu.

The show, of course, is no stranger to controversy, even in re-runs. Earlier this year, the network was bullied into not re-airing a Scientology-themed episode, for which it recently received an Emmy nomination.
