Is this SNL video an appropriate use of public airwaves?
We tend to forget, but the big networks get to come to our TVs because they rent airwaves from the federal government. In other words, “we the People” are the landlords and the networks are the tenants.
Do you think this video violates the lease? (Serious content warning — I’d consider this not just defamatory, but semi-pornographic.)
Options if you think it does violate the public trust:
- Contact the FCC
- Contact NBC
- Contact your local NBC affiliate
- Boycott SNL advertisers
