On Sunday the 2nd of May, a car bomb was discovered parked in Times Square, New York, outside the headquarters of Viacom, the media conglomerate in ownership of Comedy Central.
The Secretary for Homeland Security, among other officials, stated that it was a “one-off attack,”. The attack was suggested by others in the House Committee of Homeland Security, including the Representative for New York, to have been in response to the 201st episode of South Park, a Comedy Central programme.
