According to a new book, the television program “South Park” is subversively conservative.

That’s the thesis of South Park Conservatives: The Revolt Against Liberal Media Bias by Brian C. Anderson. He’s an analyst with the Manhattan Institute.

An article by Anderson on the same theme can be found here.

The book is published by the conservative imprint, Regnery Publishing. Here’s part of the book blurb from their site:

It’s a behind-the-scenes look at how conservativesâ€???and even iconoclasts who don’t consider themselves conservativeâ€???are overthrowing the liberal media and political correctness. From the bloggers who demolished Dan Rather, to the Swift Boat veterans who sank John Kerry, to the gleeful anti–political correctness of such comedic send-ups as South Park and Team America, the American media landscape has suffered an earthquake. Conservatives who have fretted about liberal media bias and losing the culture war should take heart, because a new generation of “South Park Conservatives” is changing everything. In South Park Conservatives, you’ll learn:
· How media bias in the 2004 Kerry/Bush race was so overwhelming as to make a mockery of “journalistic ethics”
· How liberal Hollywood has tried�??and failed�??to read conservatives out of the industry
· How right-of-center students are turning the tables on their left-wing profs at campuses across the nation
· How the liberal monopoly has been broken beyond all repair by Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Ann Coulter, FOX News, and the blogosphere
· How hysterical liberal accusations of conservative “bigotry” and “hate” have boomeranged against the Left
· How media and academic liberals�??seeing their monopoly on information and communication disappearing�??have embraced extremism and conspiracy-mongering As Brian C. Anderson demonstrates, the New York Times, the big networks, and the rest of the elite liberal media can no longer set the terms of the nation’s political and cultural debate. The liberal media’s monolithic power has cracked and broken�??and freedom and conservative ideas are breaking out all over.
