Radar has a feature on the Family Guy backlash. Remember the time I wore bacon-scented underwear and debated Gilbert Gottfried on how formulaic Family Guy is?

NY Magazine on Wasilla, AK. The reckless snarking on small town America has bothered me somewhat, as has the Republicans abusing the pride of their membership. In any case, Small Town, USA still exists.
