NBC Airs Donald Trump Spot During NASCAR And NFL Coverage Amid Equal Time Concerns Following Kamala Harris’ ‘Saturday Night Live’ Cameo


After Kamala Harris made a last-minute 'SNL' cameo, NBC is complying with the FCC's Equal Time Rule, giving Donald Trump 90 seconds of free ad time.

Noting that Harris’ SNL cameo came just three days before the presidential election, Carr posted on X, “What comparable time and placement can they offer all other qualifying candidates?” Reed Hundt, a former FCC chairman, wrote on X that Carr is “wrong” that SNL was engaged in an effort to evade the rule. NBC affiliates including those in New York, Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., have since filed notice that Harris “appeared without charge” on SNL for one minute, 30 seconds on Saturday.
