Cathay Pacific Pulls ‘Family Guy’ Episode Referencing Tiananmen Square

by rrollins, December 6, 2024

Cathay Pacific has removed an episode of “Family Guy” from its in-flight entertainment after a passenger complaint about a scene referencing the Tiananmen Square “Tank Man” incident. The episode, ‘Death Has a Shadow,’ shows Peter Griffin standing beside a protester in front of tanks, mirroring the iconic image. The airline apologized, stating the content doesn’t represent their stance and that they’ve instructed their third-party provider to prevent similar incidents. The move highlights the sensitivity around the Tiananmen Square crackdown, which remains heavily censored in China.
