Post 13: Ethnic Whites

Well after our long discussion of Family Guy, I think shows like that are now playing a bigger role in society. Shows like The Simpsons, South Park and many of the Seth MacFarlane shows I believe are becoming a great use of social commentary. Also I believe they are helping point out the ridiculousness of many stereotypes. I mean if any seriously watches an episode of Family Guy and sees the character Mort, and assume that is what all Jews are like, then they need some real help. It also uses people who are part of those groups to voice those characters where ever possible. So it isn't just Seth making fun of people constantly, but also people poking fun at themselves.
