Seth MacFarlane, the outspoken Family Guy creator and highest-paid writer-producer on television, sounds off on Prop 8 in a new interview with Details Magazine. As the country awaits a ruling by a Federal court, could MacFarlane—the king of the fart joke—emerge as a civil-rights proponent?
“The ridiculousness thing about something like Prop 8 is that it will be overturned,” he told Details. “They put something like $40 million into that campaign, and they might as well have just bet all that money on the Red Sox. It’s wasted money because that civil-rights battle will be won eventually. They’ll just have to sulk in a corner and accept the fact that gays will be able to marry each other. Every civil-rights conflict—black people, women—comes to an end in the right way.”
