A South Park episode making fun of right-wing activist and Donald Trump ally Charlie Kirk, who was shot dead this week while speaking at a US event, has been pulled from Comedy Central but remains on Paramount+. Trey Parker and Matt Stone's long-running animated sitcom regularly lampoons leading figures including US President Trump.

Comedy Central did not issue a public statement about pulling the episode, “but confirmed to industry outlets that the episode was ‘temporarily pulled’ from its cable rotation.”
