MEDIA MATTERS AFA: 'Gay' orgy too much for televisionGroup launches campaign to have FCC crack down on 'Family Guy'Posted: March 26, 2009 11:45 pm Eastern © 2010 WorldNetDaily
Editor's Note: The following contains descriptions of a graphic television program some readers will find offensive: A campaign by the American Family Association to protest a sexually explicit episode of "Family Guy" on the Fox television network has generated nearly 80,000 complaints to the Federal Communications Commission in just the first day. The March 8 episode, which was rated by the network as appropriate for 14-year-olds, included multiple references to homosexual sex and featured discussion of an "11-way gay orgy," according to the family organization. "This should be disturbing to a lot of American families," said AFA spokesman Randy Sharp. "It's beyond me how a network finds humor in the deviancy of human nature," he continued. "The writers of this program, you really have to question who are these people who come up with this and call it entertainment." (Story continues below) He said the organization has set up an online feature in which viewers can submit complaints to the FCC, and a total closing in on 80,000 already had taken advantage of the opportunity. A video of a brief excerpt has been posted here (Warning: Content sexually suggestive):
According to the AFA report, the offensive episode featured:
Further, the AFA said, Baby Stewie eats cereal covered with horse sperm that resembled milk kept in the refrigerator. A WND request to Fox for comment did not generate a response. But such programming just "goes too far," the AFA said in encouraging readers to file an FCC complaint. According to a statement from Donald E. Wildmon, chairman and founder of the pro-family group whose constituency ranges into the millions, "The content of this program was so explicit that I can't even begin to describe it here." The program's reference to Christians went even further. "At a 'straight' meeting, the speaker talks to gays about Jesus and tells them, [Jesus] hates many people, but none more than homosexuals,'" the report said. It also said Pepsico helped sponsor the work. "The FCC has a duty to enforce the law and fine Fox for this sickening violation of broadcast decency standards," the statement said. The Edmonton Journal noted the Parents Television Council already had expressed its objections to the episode. "The council filed an indecency complaint – yes, again – with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission, claiming [the] episode was vile and disgusting, even by Family Guy's already shockingly low standards," the editorial said.
