Crybaby-in-Chief bawls about “unfair” treatment by SNL

Well, NBC is supposedly a network which should present things fairly and without a bias. And, while SNL is comedy, it is also political. As such it should be giving equal time to everyone. How about reserving ten minutes directly after the opening skit for comedic rebuttal? Equal Time: FCC Broadcasting Rules and Regulations

well this is the dumbest and most factually wrong thing i read today LMAO congrats!
 
I am not the one telling anyone what they should say or not say. That is you. So I repeat, why do you hate the first amendment?

I never once told anyone what they should say or not say. I just said that since NBC is supposed to be an unbiased network then they should give equal time to both sides. They can attack Trump all they want as long as they attack the other side equally. Either that or they should move SNL over to the MSNBC network where it fits in better and then they wouldn't have to give equal time at all.

I look forward to Bill Maher getting a time slot on Fox.

SO you never once told anyone what they should say, but NBC should say things you want....
 
After the 24/7 bash of Obama on talk radio and the massacre of Hillary on same, the Right has a lot of gall to whine about unfair treatment on SNL.

Grow a pair, Gang. Sheesh
 
The right wing hacks are on the right wing hack networks. SNL is on NBC, which should be unbiased. Or, are you saying that NBC is a left wing hack network?

Are you saying every radio station on my AM band, except ESPN, is a Right Wing network?

Hmm...thanks for admitting that. :roll:

Donald Trump is taking his fixation with Saturday Night Live to a new level.
The President tweeted in the early Sunday morning hours a threat to have the NBC late night comedy series investigated by a federal agency. The offense? Mocking him.
“It’s truly incredible that shows like Saturday Night Live, not funny/no talent, can spend all of their time knocking the same person (me), over & over, without so much of a mention of ‘the other side,'” the president wrote. “Like an advertisement without consequences. Same with Late Night Shows. Should Federal Election Commission and/or FCC look into this? There must be Collusion with the Democrats and, of course, Russia! Such one sided media coverage, most of it Fake News. Hard to believe I won and am winning. Approval Rating 52% (total lie, Trump has never even reached 50% nationwide), 93% with Republicans. Sorry! #MAGA”

Of course, entertainment programming mocking newsworthy figures is protected as free speech. Trump seems to be referring to the “equal time rule” which mandates that U.S. broadcast TV stations give equal air-time opportunities to opposing political candidates in prime-time if requested. But Trump is president, not a candidate, and SNL is in late-night and, again, parody. There’s also FCC’s “fairness doctrine,” a regulation that required networks to give balanced coverage to matters of public controversy. The FCC eliminated the policy in 1987.

Hilarious It’s a wonderful life segment; YouTube

Where’s your tough guy, Trumpsters? Trump gives babies a bad name.

Why anyone does not find it frightening to have a child at the wheel I will never understand.

don't kid yourself, there are a lot of them

this is a serious situation

I think it's much worse as time goes by and Trump eliminates all the adults around him.

At this point everyone knows, only ass lickers need apply to any federal DC job.

And ass licking is not very adult.
 
SNL should respond by mocking the mad king for an entire episode.

Then they would be charged with murder after he died of an aneurysm.
 
We already knew that Trump is a thin skinned, spineless coward too caught up in himself to see anything beyond his own egocentric narcissism. He skips the Correspondents’ Association Dinner all the time because he cannot bear to hear anything negative about himself. He's a conman who cries everytime someone says something negative about him. No matter how deserving the negative comments are.
Yeah, I know, but I do enjoy rubbing it in.:mrgreen:
 
SO you never once told anyone what they should say, but NBC should say things you want....

Why do you have to lie? I said NBC should give equal time. I would prefer they give 50/50 time because I'm not a partisan. But, you being a full blooded partisan, think it's perfectly fine with them only giving 99/1 time to their partisan left wing agenda.
 
Maybe the POTUS should just stop giving SNL and other comedians so much material?

This is like those people who whine about 90% of news coverage of Trump being negative when 90% of what Trump does is negative.

They should be telling Trump to act like a decent human being for two days straight but instead they whine about people reporting on the mean-spirited hot mess that they elected.

Media would be biased if they did NOT report on Trump's perpetual bad behavior.
 
Are you saying every radio station on my AM band, except ESPN, is a Right Wing network?

Hmm...thanks for admitting that. :roll:

You know darn well I didn't say that. Is that the only way you think you can win arguments is to lie?
 
Equal time rule doesn’t remotely relate to satirical humor.

I can never tell whether that poster is pulling our leg or not. He says some of the silliest things ... but then again, rightwingers have had to numb their critical thinking skills in order to fall in line behind Trump's senselessness.

How about shutting up about it and remembering the 1st amendment? Trump is a buffoon and his amusing antics are fair game. His lack of a sense of humor makes it all the more delicious.
