Unless the broadcaster offered Equal Time to other qualifying campaigns,” Carr said. “In the 2016 cycle, President Obama’s FCC Chair made clear that the agency would enforce the Equal Time rule when candidate Trump went on SNL. NBC stations publicly filed Equal Opportunity notices to ensure that all other qualifying candidates could obtain Equal Time if they sought it. Stations did the same thing when Clinton appeared on SNL,” Carr continued.

With only days before the election, NBC appears to have structured this appearance in a way that evades these requirements. What comparable time and placement can they offer all other qualifying candidates?” Carr said. “Just weeks ago, SNL’s Lorne Michaels said that they *would not* be bringing any of the candidates on due to election and equal time laws,” Carr added. “You can’t bring the actual people who are running on because of election laws and the equal time provisions,” Michaels said, according to Carr.

Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, Hillary Clinton’s running mate in 2016, also appeared in a skit where a contestant in a game show couldn’t remember who Kaine was. Numerous politicians have appeared as themselves on SNL over the years, including Trump, who hosted the show in 2015 as a presidential candidate. He also hosted in 2004. The show has made no secret of its disdain for the Republican candidate and celebrated his defeat at Biden’s hands in 2020. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin and John McCain also appeared as themselves on SNL during their previous runs for high office. Harris also faced criticism for the skit itself, with some saying she copied Trump.

Jimmy Fallon, a former “Saturday Night Live” member, portrayed Trump during the airing of his late-night talk show. He sat down at what looked like nearly the exact dressing room mirror, saying “Wow, I look fantastic” when Trump – just like Kamala – appeared on the other side of the mirror. “No, we look fantastic and I mean really fantastic,” Trump said. The two Trumps discussed preparing for the then-second Republican Primary Debate, creating jobs, immigration, taxes, his potential vice president pick and him being “really rich.” In both skits, which aired on NBC programs, the comedians mirrored the politicians’ hand movements and expressions as they spoke. Viewers didn’t shy away from pointing out the similar sketches. “Kamala ripped off the same bit Trump did when he was on Saturday Night Live in 2015 …and Trump’s was double the length,” radio host Ari Hoffman said on X. “Kamala on SNL can’t even be ORIGINAL… had to plagiarize Trump and his much funnier skit. She’s soooo CRINGE,” another user commented. Harris held campaign rallies in Atlanta and Charlotte, NC. earlier Saturday before she traveled to 30 Rock for her “SNL” spot. She left the building shortly after her appearance and landed in Detroit early Sunday.

Dead Wrong Again -- Nobel Economists Put Partisanship Over Economic Common Sense

On Saturday night’s CBS Weekend News, White House reporter Weijia Jiang interviewed four female Trump supporters, asking them if they were offended as women by Trump’s attacks on Kamala Harris, insulting her intelligence, calling her a "sleazebag," and more. “Not a bit,” they said. It was a surprisingly positive story when Trump has drawn 85 percent negative coverage from ABC, CBS, and NBC this fall. Anchor Jericka Duncan began with the feminist news: “Tonight, thousands of women are gathering in Washington, D.C. and in marches in all 50 states to support Vice President Harris. This movement was launched in 2017, one day after Donald Trump's inauguration [no video of the knit pussy hats]. But not all women find the former president offensive.” It’s surprising there wasn’t even a real soundbite from the feminists. Then came Jiang’s complaint: JIANG: From insulting her intelligence -- TRUMP: She is dumb as a rock, you cannot have that. JIANG: To straight up name-calling. TRUMP: That sleazebag said during the debate, she said, oh, your rallies are not well attended and people leave. JIANG: Former president Trump has not held back personal attacks against Vice President Harris. [To women] He has called her lazy, stupid , a sleazebag. Does that bother you as women? ANSWER: Not a bit. Jiang and CBS left out what Harris calls Trump – a “petty tyrant,” for starters. Try Googling for “Kamala insults Trump,” and you get a pile of results of Trump insulting Harris. But they let this multi-racial panel of pro-Trump women say their piece: JIANG: These supporters say their vote is based on his record, not his rhetoric. ELIZABETH CAIN:  For me, it is not personal, it is policy. ROSALIND HANSON: What he did for the economy, what he did for the black community, what he did, in terms of trying to secure the border. CAIN:  I think it goes back to finances. You know? The grocery bills, the energy cost, gasoline. It just all of that. When people's paychecks are affected, especially as a mother – ISABELLE STEVENSON: We’re looking at 2019. Are we better now? And the answer is no, we are not. Jiang explained that Harris thinks she has a pile of "secret supporters" among women who won't tell their husbands or families that they're voting against Trump. The Trump supporters say there are people who won't admit to people they're backing Trump because of all the divisive rhetoric. It's on both sides, even if CBS can't acknowledge that.
