“My measure, David, and I take a look at when things really begin to change, is when the social culture changes,” Biden told NBC’s “Meet the Press” host David Gregory. “I think ‘Will & Grace’ probably did more to educate the American public than almost anything anybody’s ever done so far.”
“Will and Grace” was a sitcom aired by NBC from 1998 through 2006. It featured a main character who was homosexual.
Since 1998, the year “Will & Grace” premiered, voters in 30 states have approved state constitutional amendments banning same-sex marriage. In no state have voters approved a referendum legalizing same-sex marriage.
