"That FCC regulator of course is a Trump appointee. Do I need to mention that they are wrong on the "rule"? The equal time provision means that if network broadcasts a message by a candidate in prime time, it must offer the same amount of time on the same terms to an opposing candidate."
Keehee ha, ahhhhhhhhhhh.
After a commissioner for the Federal Communications Commission accused Saturday Night Live of violating federal rules following a surprise appearance from Vice President Kamala Harris, NBC is offering former President Donald Trump‘s campaign free commercial time on the network.
Since Harris appeared on SNL for 90 seconds, NBC must offer an equal amount of time to Trump’s campaign to be in accordance with the FCC’s Equal Time rule. That rule also includes a statute that allows the FCC to revoke a broadcaster’s license “for willful or repeated failure” to offer the same amount of airtime to candidates campaigning for the same office.
