Conspiracy Theory Rock was a parody of Schoolhouse Rock written and produced by Robert Smigel for Saturday Night Live. It aired in 1998, but was cut from reruns, leading some folks to believe it was banned by the network for its content. Lorne Michaels said no, it just wasn't funny enough to include in reruns when they could use the time for something else. It was included in a "best of" DVD collection in 2006.

"Not funny enough to show again to anyone." They're right, none of this is funny but it is very vital information. The wonder is that it got aired once. I'm betting whoever was responsible for it being made and for getting it on air were fired with prejudice and never worked in the entertainment industry again.
That would be Lorne Michaels, and he still has the same job.
