It would be a blatant lie to say that South Park doesn't use gross out humor as one of it's primary tools.

Scott Tenorman Must Die is still their best episode ever.

As the article noted, both South Park and The Daily Show use gross-out humor. But the article implies that South Park stops there while The Daily Show does grand political satire, when (as the GP notes) South Park's satire is on roughly the same level. Family Guy would have been a better comparison.
