Fox is supposedly the "right wing network," but its prime time programming is absolute dreck attacking traditional family values.

Fox’s network never claimed to be conservative. Fox New only looks conservative when compared to the MSM. FoxNews is pretty much middle of the road in the scheme of American politics.

FOX News has a slight rightwing bend, but FOX "entertainment" shows are the same liberal pap as elsewhere. The above article is about "Family guy". Everyone who has seen it, knows that it's total leftist trash. Seth McFarlane is an homosexual activist and open Obama/Democrats supporter. Bashing conservatives and Christians is the entire point of "Family guy".

I am surprised that it is "news" to some.

This is one show on FOX. Who watches it? I have never seen one episode. I like “Fringe” and some other shows but, seriously, who watches “adult” cartoons?

The Fox broadcast network has never claimed to be conservative, as a look at their programming shows.

Neither has the Fox News Channel. FNC only claims to be:
“fair and balanced.”

Fox is supposedly the "right wing network,"

Really? Does it advertise itself as such? I watch Family Guy because I think its funny. I'm glad I have the freedom to do that here in the United States. If you don't like show, you too, have the FREEDOM to change the channel.

This is what passes for “comedy” these days. The writers of these skits are sick and twisted, as are their employers for tolerating this kind of degenerate humor.

Maybe you should have one of those television sets with a channel selector and an on/off switch. Works for me.

First, Fox and Fox News are two different networks. Second, Fox is a money-making operation—period. The reason FOX News tilts to the right is because it’s good business. The ratings prove it. That’s all there is to it. If it makes money, they’ll do it. Last, Fox News is Murdoch to a T. It’s a combination of conservative editorial content and tabloid news. It’s basically the New York Post as a teevee network. None of this is very complicated. Family Guy is on Tv because it makes money. End of story.

“Family Guy”, at least for me,sucks and is unwatchable. Same goes for “The Simpsons” and most of the other crap on TV. I do like “This Old House Hour” ,though,and it’s on PBS , go figure.

My wife bought me something for Christmas called a remote control. It has an on and off button and others that can change stations. Now no one can make me watch their evil programs.

Fox News is the 'right-wing' network. The broadcast channel Fox, and the cable channel FX, dozens of TV channels and film studios in a handful of countries, magazines, newspapers, a couple sports teams to varying degrees, and even Myspace are owned by Fox's parent company, News Corp NBC Universal and their affiliates (including Comedy Central, the SciFi Channel, and the Food network among others) are somehow connected in a way that I don't really understand...

As to 'Family Guy', yes, it's offensive, tasteless, and inappropriate for children, but it's the parents job to make sure their children watch age-appropriate stuff. It's not like this is sneakily inserted into a kiddie show, or airing on a network that prides itself on being 'conservative', and it takes about three consecutive seconds of seeing it or one glance at the ratings logo in the corner to determine that it's outright inappropriate for children. If there are any children who watch this, their parents are obviously not doing their parenting jobs properly. I agree it's offensive, but among other things we have a right to free speech in this country even if it does offend people (and thank goodness, otherwise this site would likely be shut down due to liberals whining about its offensiveness), and we can't censor everything in the world 'for the children' simply because some people aren't doing their jobs as parents properly.
