Last night, several NBC affiliates refused to air the live episode of SNL hosted by Al Sharpton. NBC lawyers certified that it could be broadcasted nationally without breaking equal time rules, but some affiliates showed infomercials, Cheers reruns or The Best of Steve Martin instead.
The next morning, Sharpton was on CBS This Morning. That was broadcasted nationally...
I was really disappointed by this. I'm a big SNL fan, and I haven't missed a show in over 8 years.
If you lived in one of the cities where it wasn't shown, call or e-mail your NBC affiliate and complain.
I was really looking forward to this episode because Tracy Morgan was supposed to return. Anyone else see it?
