Cruise denies South Park rumours

War Of The Worlds star Tom Cruise has slammed media reports he was responsible for stopping the rebroadcast of a controversial South Park episode poking fun at him.

During an interview on US Abc's Primetime the actor was adamant he had nothing to do with a repeat of the animated show being pulled off the air at the last minute, insisting he was too involved filming Mission: Impossible III to worry about such trivial matters.
