Comment on How does South Park get away with trashing identifiable people? Are they sued often?
jaybone@lemmy.world 7 months agoI have to doubt a lot of people love being parodied on that show. They are pretty harsh.

I take it you don’t have a brother or any close guy friends. It’s kind of what we do. We rip on each other and buy each other a beer. Same with competitive sports. At the end of the day we respect each other but can make fun of each other and live laugh and love

This is not like ripping on each other with your guy friends.
And this is not like Weird Al doing a parody of one of your songs, which most musicians do see as a badge of honor.
These are pretty damning (and accurate) personal attacks. Pretty sure j-lo, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears were not happy with their portrayal.
