Seth MacFarlane on Family Guy Picket Line, Donates to SAG-AFTRA/WGA
Seth MacFarlane joined the Family Guy picket line & donated $1M to support those being impacted by the WGA & SAG-AFTRA strikes.
With the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, entertainment professionals across the industry are suffering from work stoppages as unions and studios continue to clash over labor disagreements. One measure to help is The Entertainment Community Fund, formerly known as the Actors Fund. The organization helps provide financial assistance for industry workers during both strikes. The WGA strike has been active since May, while the SAG-AFTRA started in July. The fund received a generous contribution from Seth MacFarlane, the creator behind animated hits Family Guy and American Dad! , the live-action comedy Ted, and Hulu's sci-fi series The Orville, in the amount of $1 million.
