FCC commissioner claims Harris on ‘SNL’ violates ‘equal time’ rule 

The Hill- A Federal Communications Commission (FCC) commissioner has claimed that Vice President Harris’s recent appearance on “Saturday Night Live” violates the “equal time” rule.

“This is a clear and blatant effort to evade the FCC’s Equal Time rule,” Commissioner Brendan Carr posted on the social platform X Saturday in response to a post from The Associated Press about Harris being on the show that night. 

“The purpose of the rule is to avoid exactly this type of biased and partisan conduct – a licensed broadcaster using the public airwaves to exert its influence for one candidate on the eve of an election. Unless the broadcaster offered Equal Time to other qualifying campaigns,” Carr, a Trump appointee, continued.

  2. A tard appointed by Dumph. Loser syndrome appointee who doesn’t even know the rules. Was given the opportunity to appear, but refused. Has made past claims he will never appear on that really big shoe again. Alex Baldwin syndrome? He certainly does a good take on him.
