Someone's getting a little worried out there ... Actually, the earlier part of the skit was kind of good. The "say their names" or "remember their names" thing. Any thoughts on SNL saying no candidates a few weeks ago and then backtracking yesterday? Or is the above stupidity all you can muster? 1

Actually, the earlier part of the skit was kind of good. The "say their names" or "remember their names" thing. That “dumb skit” is a crime. We hope you still adhere to “no one is above the law” especially considering your standards regarding the Trump campaign. And here they are admitting it. Someone is scared and it ain’t Team Trump. 1

Or is the above stupidity all you can muster? What's stupid about my comment? You guys are saying Kamala's appearance was a joke, a failure. So what are you so worried about? I have no idea what the FEC says about having a candidate on a comedy show. Perhaps you'd like to actually look up the law before saying it was illegal. NBC/Comcast has attorneys - good ones! expensive ones! - who apparently cleared it. 1 minute ago, Big Blitz said: That “dumb skit” is a crime. Again ... show me the law that says it is. Now you've moved from "a violation of FEC rules" to "a crime" without so much as a cite. 1
Big Blitz Posted November 3 Posted November 3 No one falling for the psyop - everyone vote and finish this off.

Just wondering if you could muster a thought on how SNL went about their business. The answer is no. I have no worries about the election. America will survive and in 4 years we will once again face the most important election of our lifetime and one of the candidates will be Hitler.

Same goes for you. Maybe slow down and set the dramatics aside for a moment. I asked if the esteemed Frankish, he of “Biden is mentally fit for the most important job on the planet”, if he had any thoughts on how SNL went about their business. He didn’t. Do you? Do your best to focus on the matter at hand and leave Musk out of your answer. I won’t hold my breath.
Joe Ferguson forever Posted November 3 Posted November 3 (edited) start at 2 mins and listen to the list of major elections the betting markets have gotten wrong. Some include the red wave of 2022, clinton/trump, trump/biden, Obama/romney. And the markets can be manipulated by whale bettors. Don't get your hopes up. it's just part of trumps plan to make people believe the election was rigged should he lose. He's doing the same thing with republican biased polling. https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2024/11/01/political-betting-apps-predictions Edited November 3 by Joe Ferguson forever

As you guys are so fond of arguing: turnabout is fair play. https://money.cnn.com/2015/10/14/media/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-saturday-night-live-equal-time/index.html It's an FCC (not FEC) rule; my bad. And, as usual, there are lots of interpretations and exceptions to the so-called "equal time" rule. And there's a lot we don't know. Did they offer Trump and Jill Stein and whoever a chance to appear on NBC late night? Have those other candidates demanded it? If they don't demand it, then there's no violation. If they do, well, then maybe NBC will give Trump a free 90 second ad on Monday night. Who knows. At any rate, I see zero basis for suggesting it's a criminal violation, unlike Musk's situation where it may very well be one. So as far a slowing down a touch? Please take your own advice.

You seem edgy. Not in the way you like to think of yourself however. I don’t care anything about the legality. You seem to be intent on ignoring the crux of the matter. SNL previously announced they would not be having the candidates on. They ended up having one on for the last show prior to the election. Do you have any thoughts on that? I suspect you would have had several thoughts had it been the other candidate.

I imagine Lorne Michaels changed his mind, probably hoping to give Kamala a little "humanizing" boost. I imagine he suggested this to the NBC poohbahs, who then ran it by the lawyers. I imagine the lawyers advised that it was o.k. if it didn't involve an attack on Trump and if they also did the disclosure and waited to see if other candidates demand equal time. I imagine that they ran the segment. My thoughts, since you seem so interested in them.

A goofy 90 second spot on a show whose audience (particularly with Chappell Roan, who is apparently an LGBTQ icon) skews left anyway. 1 minute ago, Biden is Mentally Fit said: I’m not all that interested.

I think it is probably something that violates the "spirit" of the rule, but not the plain language of the rule and its exceptions. So what?
