SNL Officially Informs FCC of VP Harris Appearance; FCC Comments

SNL officially notified the FCC of VP Kamala Harris's appearance and it appears Brendan Carr isn't quite speaking on behalf of the entire FCC.

As far as SNL goes, the long-running late-night sketch comedy and music series officially notified the FCC that VP Harris appeared "without charge" for "a total period of 1 minute and 30 seconds on November 2, 2024." Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate for President in the 2024 national election, appeared without charge on NBC's Saturday Night Live ("SNL") for a total period of 1 minute and 30 seconds on November 2, 2024.
