Tampa Strip Clubs: Terri Schiavo’s family is upset over ‘Family Guy’ parody
March 25, 2010The Schindlers, now maintaining a foundation in Schiavo’s name, were focused on a fifth-anniversary fundraising concert scheduled for April 11 in Indianapolis with country stars Collin Raye and Randy Travis. Then the Family Guy episode aired, featuring animated children singing lines such as “Terri Schiavo is kinda alive-o” and “(She’s) the most expensive plant you’ll ever see.”
Schindler hopes to generate enough protests to cost the show some sponsors. But one of the venues that offered the Schindler family some support during the fight over Schiavo’s feeding tube may not be so friendly now. Fox News Channel is a sister company of the network that airs Family Guy.
The show has drawn fire before. In February, Sarah Palin protested Family Guy when a character with Down syndrome said her mother was “the former governor of Alaska.” Palin, Alaska’s former chief executive, has a son with Down syndrome. The conservative Parents Television Council also protested when the show depicted a character having a heart attack after getting a lap dance from a stripper.
