Kamala Harris on SNL: Did the FCC Really Get Mad About That Sketch?
Remember that time Kamala Harris appeared on Saturday Night Live and everyone went bonkers? Yeah, it was a big deal. But did the FCC actually get all up in arms about one particular skit?
The sketch in question was called "Black Jeopardy," a parody of the popular game show. It featured Harris alongside Kenan Thompson and Ego Nwodim. While the skit was funny and got a lot of buzz, some folks were quick to accuse the FCC of being upset about it.
But, did the FCC really care? Turns out, not really. The FCC didn't launch any formal investigations or issue any warnings. It's important to remember that the FCC is a government agency focused on regulating the airwaves, not policing comedy.
So, what was all the fuss about? It was mostly just a bunch of folks who thought the FCC was going to get all "censorship-y" about it. But, it's just another case of folks getting their news from questionable sources.
The real takeaway here is that comedy is subjective and people are going to have opinions about it. The FCC, for its part, seemed to be pretty chill about the whole thing. And honestly, so was everyone else.
In the end, it's just another example of how online rumors can quickly snowball into something that's just not true. So, next time you see a headline claiming the FCC is mad about something on SNL, take it with a grain of salt. It's probably just a bunch of hot air.
