Too hot for YouTube! NBC's Palin 'incest' video yanked
WND ^ | 9-22-08 | Joe Kovacs

Posted on 09/22/2008 8:09:36 PM PDT by hope

YouTube has pulled from its website a video of a "Saturday Night Live" skit featuring characters portraying New York Times reporters investigating whether Todd Palin was having sex with the couple's own daughters after NBC expressed a claim of copyright, even though a wide range of other "SNL" clips remain available.

Worried about a lawsuit?

Good.

Now yank the entire show off the air.

They are all terrible people.

NBC knows they screwed up. The fallout is happening. Time to go for the jugular with this dispicable network.

An interesting dynamic may be developing with Gov Palin. She is drawing incredibly large crowds and developing a following independent of the MSM. They are going around the MSM like no other candidate I can recall. They don't need the media as much as the media needs them. Access to these candidates means ratings. NBC, CNN and ABC have already ensured a more limited access to Palin and McCain. I'll be interested to see if the other outlets chose profits over partisanship and agree to reasonable sitdowns.

Not really news considering NBC pulls all of their video that’s ran on other sites. If you see any of their video on other sites it’s because NBC missed it.

Palin's been getting some fair treatment from Entertainment Tonight and Rachel Ray lately.

Granted, they mostly talk about clothes and shoes, but they seem to know who their audience is, and which side their bread is buttered on.

They would not DARE have the same skit about Obama. They would not DARE to even show Obama as a Sammy Davis Jr. wannabe who comes out to the audience with a cigarette and a drink, telling his McCain stories. Obama is untouchable to the media, yet it’s anything goes with Palin and her family.

Time for SNL to run something really funny. How about a skit with Wright, Michelle, Obama and Calypso Louis? The throw in a cameo of Jesse with a sharp knife. This could all be done in black face...

It’s NOWHERE to be found, not even on HULU, which is where SNL skits are supposed to be found. I’ve been looking for 2 days. It appears to me that NBC really wants this skit down the memory hole.

SNL Takes the NY Times & Reporters to Task re Sarah Palin

I looked too and its not there. Things that make you go hmmmmmm?

Every other skit from last night's show appears to be available. Perhaps the NYT and old media didn't find their SNL treatment particularly humorous, and they expressed a preference that this skit be ushered into a memory hole.

Wasn’t it also pulled from NBC’s own website?

Backlash but no apology.

I wrote them a letter today and told them that I was removing all NBC stations from my selections and blocking them from coming into my home.

Personally, if someone watches it and can provide a list of sponsors I would write to them and tell them the same.

I believe this is the only way to deal with these fools. In spite of a few shows I like I will fore go them in favor of other programming.

Interesting that Al Franken has incest on his mind (he's the puke that came up with the skit). His daughter Thomasin works full time with his political campaign for a Minnesota senate seat and the old man has plenty of time to be playing hide the salami with her.

Wonder if his wife knows about this.

Is it possible to “cache” a video? Surely if so, somebody must have done it. This is positively Orwellian airbrushed and reconstructed history.

I think this is a legitimate question. Franken came up with the idea. Now let him address his own situation.

I think he owes everybody an explanation!

We did no less with that weird guy down in Florida.
