Creators Say iPhone South Park App Denied
Wednesday, February 18th, 2009 at 6:46 PM - by Bryan Chaffin

Apple has denied a South Park app submitted by the creators of the cartoon. According to a blog post at South Park's Web site, Apple denied the app because its content was "potentially offensive."
"We first announced our iPhone App back in October, after we submitted the Application to Apple for approval," the company said on its Web site. "After a couple of attempts to get the application approved, we are sad to say that our app has been rejected."
"According to Apple, the content was 'potentially offensive," the blog entry continued. "But Apple did admit that the standards would evolve, citing that when iTunes first launched it didn't sell any music with explicit lyrics. At this point, we are sad to say, the app is dead in the water. Sorry, South Park fans."
This may be in start contrast to Apple's policies for video content at iTunes, where the entire South Park TV series is available for sale, along with its feature film, South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
This seems like a good opportunity to point out that iFart Mobile and a host of similar apps was not deemed offensive by Apple.
