Seth McFarlane has landed Fox in hot water with the FCC, though this time it is “American Dad” that is the culprit instead of “Family Guy.” It seems several people were offended by a January episode featuring racy dialogue in which it is implied that one character has given a horse an ejaculation. The watchdog group Parents Television Council launched a campaign urging members to file complaints with the FCC. After receiving over 100,000 complaints, the FCC decided to fine Fox $25,000 for its lack of cooperation in the investigation. However, Fox said they were “puzzled” over the FCC’s actions, saying they “responded to all of the questions related to the substance” of the investigation.
