NBC Forced to Give Trump Two Minutes of Airtime

‘Kamala Broke It, I’ll Fix It’

RedState:
Saturday Night Live’s effort to give Kamala Harris some free publicity backfired spectacularly when NBC was forced to provide Donald Trump equal airtime. And the former president used that time to his full advantage.

SNL had initially refused to allow any presidential candidates to make cameos during their sketch comedy show but then tossed that faux integrity right out the window when Harris made a surprise appearance.

As per usual, Harris was awkward and couldn’t contain her cackle. Oh, and she also plagiarized a skit that Trump performed in 2015. 

What made matters worse, however, was that the network was clearly in violation of the FCC’s equal-time rule. The rule essentially states that if you’re going to offer X amount of time to a political candidate, you have to give the same option to their opponent.

Trump’s campaign said they never received an SNL invite, and FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr called them out publicly for “a clear and blatant effort to evade” the rule and thus skirt election law. more here

  1. Need moe orange glow! Forced, you mean like if a certain derp decided to overstay back in 2021 he would of been forcibly removed. Would of been a pleasure to watch him dragged out kicking & screaming like a 13 yr old teenage girl.
