NBC gave former President Donald Trump 90 seconds of free ad time Sunday following concerns that Vice President Kamala Harris‘ cameo on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live may have violated the FCC’s Equal Time Rule.
“NBC and Comcast reached out yesterday to give our campaign the opportunity to satisfy the equal time requirement,” a Trump campaign official told our sister site Deadline. “President Trump filmed the direct-to-camera video after yesterday’s PA rally.”
Brendan Carr, the Trump-appointed Commissioner for the FCC, flagged the situation Saturday on X, just two hours before SNL’s broadcast began.
I saw the ad during the Martinsville race. I did not know NBC was forced to allow it for free.
Fair is fair.
Great ad BTW.
