Microsoft a Little Slow on the Uptake in ‘Family Guy’ Brouhaha
Fans of “Family Guy” are chortling about Microsoft’s belated discovery that a “Family Guy” special might not jibe with the software giant’s corporate image. On Monday, Microsoft said it’s pulling out as sponsor of a “Family Guy” variety show, just two weeks after announcing its sole sponsorship of the special, “Family Guy Presents: Seth & Alex’s Almost Live Comedy Show,” scheduled to air Nov. 8. The special includes “typical ‘Family Guy’-style jokes, including riffs on deaf people, the Holocaust, feminine hygiene and incest,” said “Variety.”
