A new episode of TV cartoon comedy Family Guy showing dad Peter Griffin's antics after being injected with 'the gay gene', has angered a large US parents' group. Family Gay: Peter Griffin gets injected with 'the gay gene' "Fox treated viewers to everything from an 11-way gay orgy to baby Stewie eating a bowl of cereal with horse sperm instead of milk," said a statement from the Parents' Television Council. "Clearly, the explicit content was not isolated to one instance in one segment of the show; it permeated the entire programme," it noted gravely. Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane has been a vocal supporter of LGBT equality, especially during California's recent gay marriage vote. Talking to The Advocate magazine about a previous compliant against his show by the Parents' Television Council, he said: "That's like getting hate mail from Hitler. They're literally terrible human beings. I've read their newsletter, I've visited their website, and they're just rotten to the core. "For an organization that prides itself on Christian values… they spend their entire day hating people. They can all suck my dick as far as I'm concerned." A preview clip from the 'gay gene episode' of Family Guy appears below. The new episodes of the show will screen locally on C4 later this year.
