NBC knew full well that it would be breaking at least two laws by interfering in the election in this way, and it did so anyway.

NBC constructed a sketch literally aimed at increasing Kaine's name recognition.
SNL could thus tip two elections.
People may not appreciate the significance of SNL. It has a huge young male audience — exactly the audience Harris and Kaine need.
By giving the FCC and Congress so little time before the election, NBC calculated that it could get away with, at most, a fine.
NBC's top lawyer, Kim Harris, worked for Obama and is thick as thieves with Biden admin and DNC.
NBC may not have calculated that this is flagrant election interference.
NBC may not have calculated that it is vulnerable because it depends on the US government for its license.
The American people have subsidized NBC for decades.
Congress and FCC should revoke NBC's license. They have violated the public's trust. It is not acting in the public's interest.
Our voices matter. Please share this post so the FCC and Congress will take immediate action against flagrant criminal conduct and election interference by NBC.
The producer of Saturday Night Live said neither Harris nor Trump would appear on the show "because of election laws." Last night, about 60 hours before polls open, he put Harris on the show in a warm & humanizing sketch. He and NBC violated the equal time provision of the law.
