Is Cartoon Network ever going to broadcast this?

I am wondering whether the Cartoon Network will ever broadcast the following cartoons:

Daffy Duck -- Scalp Trouble (1939);
Bugs Bunny -- Hiawatha's Rabbit Hunt (1941);
Daffy Duck -- Ducktators, The (1942);
Bugs Bunny -- Bugs Bunny Nips The Nips (1944);
Bugs Bunny -- Doggone Tired (1949);
Bugs Bunny -- Mississippi Hare (1949);
Bugs Bunny -- Which is Witch? (1949);
Bugs Bunny -- Bushy Hare (1950);
Bugs Bunny -- Devil May Hare (1954);
Daffy Duck -- China Jones (1959);
Bugs Bunny -- Horse Hare (1960).

I have been patiently scanning for these for several months (over 12), seemingly to no avail. I realize some or all are politically incorrect, but they are part of the historical record and I would like to see them at least once in my lifetime.

I have also checked Amazon.com and Half.com to see if they can be purchased, but again to no avail.

I would appreciate advice on how to view or purchase them. Thanks!

I personally have no idea. Now I haven't seen all of these, so I don't know what the content of them are. Out of the ones I saw, however, I could only guess that the chances of them being shown on the Cartoon Network is VERY slim. The political (slavery) and racial (the Japanese) content is just not acceptable to show to the people who would watch them. They may be shown on some historical program, but it's hard to say. If you have a program like Kazaa, LimeWire, or Ares, etc. you may be able to download them (I've only attempted to download a few of them, and I've had some pretty good luck). They take a while to download, and they aren't the greatest quality compared to a DVD (distributors probably kept far away from these), but they're a ton of fun to watch for obvious reasons.

By the way, The Ducktators and Which is Witch both have two or three YouTube uploads. I've posted the longest ones for both. Just enter them in the search box if you want to see the others.

There are those and the Censored 11. As someone pointed out, Youtube has a few of them, and with the proper browser and add-ons it's possible to copy them. IF they CAN'T be found on a DVD try your peer-to-peer networks or bittorrent. Hope that helps. And no network will ever broadcast those in this day. They're too "controversial" to be shown. Some of them I understand why others I don't. But I figure i would have to be one of the minorities they're making fun of to understand their reasoning behind them being 'banned.'
