ew.com/michael-douglas-defends-farting-benjamin-franklin-8635051
Quick Glance: Michael Douglas defends farting as Benjamin Franklin
- Michael Douglas expresses no remorse for his portrayal of flatulence as a founding father.
- In an interview with Sirius XM's The Jess Cagle Show, the Wall Street actor defended the scene in his Apple TV+ series Franklin where his Benjamin Franklin repeatedly breaks wind. Douglas delved into a book about Franklin and used 'Fart Proudly' to counter critics.

- The Apple TV+ series, based on A Great Improvisation: Franklin, France, and the Birth of America by Pulitzer Prize winner Stacy Schiff, narrates Franklin's endeavor to persuade the French government to back the American revolution.
