Former Vice President Dan Quayle criticized which TV sitcom character to illustrate the decline in American family values?

In May 1992, as the presidential campaign season was heating up, Vice President Dan Quayle delivered a speech about family-values in America. This speech came to define him nearly as much as his spelling talents. Speaking at the Commonwealth Club of California, he pointed to and made comments about Murphy Brown on the CBS TV show, "Murphy Brown." The star character, Murphy Brown, was a fictional 40 something, divorced news anchor played by Candice Bergen. She had finally made the decision to have a child outside of marriage. Quayle criticized Brown. He noted that the rate of out-of-wedlock births in America had reached a historic high.

“Bearing babies irresponsibly is simply wrong,” the vice president said. “Failing to support children one has fathered is wrong. We must be unequivocal about this. It doesn’t help matters when prime-time TV has Murphy Brown, a character who supposedly epitomizes today’s intelligent, highly paid professional woman, mocking the importance of fathers by bearing a child alone and calling it just another lifestyle choice.”
