It's called a clue. You might want to look into it. Speedy gonzales is not welcome at the Cartoon Network.
The rapid rodent has been deemed an offensive ethnic stereotype of Mexicans, and has been off the air since the cable network became the sole U.S. broadcaster of old Warner Brothers cartoons in late 1999
Oddly enough, there is one place to catch Speedy Gonzales on TV:
But Speedy boosters shouldn't expect to see their furry hero anytime soon, at least in the United States, Goldberg said. But there is a place where Speedy can still be found zipping across TV screens — and, presumably, where the crude stereotypes he embodies don't touch a cultural nerve.That place: The Cartoon Network Latin America, where, ironically enough, Speedy Gonzales is "hugely popular," Goldberg said.
I think we should force the Cartoon Network Latin America to take Speedy Gonzales off the air, because of the offensive portrayal of Americans as personified by Sylvester the cat.
Posted by Rich at March 27, 2002 2:31 AMHello, I'm trying to find a copy of an old cartoon with a family of quail. The father was Monte', mother Gwendolyn, and daughter Toots. The parents had a very heavy British Accent. Please let me know if you can help. Thank you very much.

The baby buzzard says "My momma done told me to get something for dinner" as he is flying. I don't remember if it is Foghorn Leghorn or Bugs, or if it is either one! Help!
