In this assignment you will watch, rather than read, the presentation of a philosophical paper. In a series ofYouTube videos, Dr. David Kyle Johnson of King’s College in Pennsylvania argues that watching the television series “South Park” improves our character, and in doing so, defines the concept of morality. Be warned, this lecture contains profanity.
