Good Rant- I haven’t watched SNL in oh… 25 years, but I WOULD watch a parody of the fact checking of the parody…

dm – Those are just facts, not facts-facts. If they’re not facts-facts it’s okay. Right?

Except Cnn is WRONG on a few things:

1 The war in Afghanistan: It IS worse. September 2009 was the bloodiest year EVER in Afghanistan. In fact, more soldiers were killed in Sept 2009 than were killed there in 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 COMBINED.

2. The war in Iraq. Obama promised that we would be out of Iraq in 2009. Watch here: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=bc6_1213724783

So it took SNL how many years to get the media to do some fact checking. Thank god!! If they would have done it earlier we would still be listening to Rather.

slow clap

Great rant.

You win an internet, although you might have to share with dq for the CNN/SNL recursion.

Sarah Palin never actually said “and I can see Russia from my house!”

So I’m just holding my breath waiting for the CNN fact checking.

Hehehe.

[...] CNN fact checks a Saturday Night Live skit. Are you fucking serious? How much further in the tank could they be? [...]

Excellent.

CNN has a talent for incompetence.

Check this out. SNL making fun of the current, former, and future President. ALL IN ONE SKIT!

The horror!

The really sad part is…
I remember watching this episode. Like, live.

If the sarcasm in that sentence didn’t warp your monitor, you may need to adjust some settings.

Fortunately, I paid extra for the monitor that came with the “Usenet Degauss” button.

Also, DQ with the extra win tonight. I’d totally watch SNL mocking Wolf Blitzer for fact checking them.

This just in…
“Weekend Update” isn’t a real news show.

Next week we might have a guest host and/or band you’ve actually heard of.

Generalissimo Francisco Franco, Gilda Radner, and John Belushi are still dead.

Ohhh, I can’t wait for Jon Stewart to get his hands on this one. You know how much he blasts CNN.

If there is still anyone with a speck of creativity at SNL, they MUST do a parody of this!
A SNL skit with Wolf Biltzer “fact checking” a SNL skit…
Comedy Gold!
