Oh for frick’s sake
Can’t wait for them to find a dog to voice Brian.

It’s been an honor to play Cleveland on Family Guy for 20 years. I love this character, but persons of color should play characters of color. Therefore, I will be stepping down from the role.

Voice roles not being safe now is bullshite. Voice talent isn’t easy.

Mort Goldman isn’t voiced by a Jewish actor. Should we cancel him too? Stewie isn’t voiced by a baby either, so that’s ageist as well.

I’m just surprised it took him this long. Because you know it wasn’t offensive the last 20 years. Just the last 20 days.

This is just absolutely ridiculous.

Were people really bothered by this?

I doubt most people know a voice actors race unless they look them up on IMDb.

Guess Seth should stop voicing Chris cause he isnt fat
McFarlane also isnt a dog, fat, a baby, or a teddy bear
Might as well redub the whole series and Ted
Is Herman the voice actor even a perv...
Losing my faith in animation

This guy should also stop voicing greased up deaf guy since he’s not deaf either

Didn't the Simpsons announce that no white people will voice a non-white character.... But most of them are yellow right?

It's a cartoon character and you're a voice.
It's not like you were playing Malcolm X on stage.

Holy crap this guy voices:
Consuela the maid, Bruce the gay guy, and the deaf guy, but his voice of Cleveland is what is offensive. Holy shite.

The voice actor for "insert cartoon character here" isn't black. Either quit your job or get fired. Affirmative action and racism will lead us FORWARD!

Seriously. Cleveland was never a caricature. He’s one of Peter’s best friends who just happens to be black. His race is not a major part of his character.

And I’m sure Matt and Trey are thrilled about this and are going to do an entire episode shitting on Family Guy again using the City Wok guy.
