Why does fox news think that SNL has to be fair in politcs?

Jack Bauer my Hero asked:


I watched a Fox and Friends clip on youtube and they were talking about how unfair SNL was being with all the Sarah Palin skits. Why does a comedy show have to be fair in politics esp. when Fox is not balanced themselves?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnGBdKO5gEc

    No Obama 2012

    Good question. Considering the source you are asking about, there is not a logical answer, though.

    I don’t think they have to be, but it would be nice to see some equality. Barack Obama is a horribly incompetent presidential candidate. But I bet they don’t make fun of Obama (at least not as much or as badly.) Sarah Palin is a conservative who has more experience and has actually accomplished reform. I don’t think it is fair that they attack her just because she is not a liberal.

    Well, there is that whole “equal time” thing.

    However, I’m not really sure that Fox News is qualified to point fingers in this arena.

    I’d love to see really *any* attention paid to Sen. Biden, though. It sort of seems like Obama is running alone. And he’s running against Palin.

    As I have seen through many years, SNL is a comedy program, and that’s it. I don’t see them as favoring or being unfair to any candidate.

    SNL had also shown political parodies ridiculing Obama, Bill & Hillary Clinton, McCain, Bush, Cheney, and just about any other politician. Their political parodies are purely for entertainment and nothing else. So, how could one claim that SNL had treated Sarah Palin unfairly?. Only people with narrow minds will say that, taking jokes as the real thing.

    You’re right! It’s comedy, and it’s a free country – they can portray people however they want!

    Vote Palin

    That’s insane. Its a comedy show. It’s all fair game!
    Also, how are they even being unfair. ALL TINA FEY DID WAS REPEAT SARAH PALIN’S EXACT WORDS!! The joke wrote itself.

    Well CNN is biased on the opposite side of Fox News and you don't really see SNL making fun of CNN that much.. Fox just wants equal humiliation for both sides is all. If you want true unbiased remarks, watch CSPAN.
