ort Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Biden's ABC town hall questioners include former Obama speechwriter, wife of former Pennsylvania Dem candidate WWW.FOXNEWS.COM Two of the questioners at the ABC town hall featuring Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Thursday had ties to high-profile Democratic politicians, including one who previously worked as a speechwriter in the Obama administration. I mean, why even do this? Surely you had to know the info would leak and now we're going to have to listen to Trump and the entire right wing media have a total meltdown over this... and for what? What's the benefit? I also love how they are saying that the entire town hall was rigged because that moderator guy screwed up in his DM to the Mooch with the super, unbelievably aweul tweet of... "Should I respond to Trump" WOW! The whole thing is a sham! At any rate, these are unforced errors and very stupid things to be doing.

Former Obama speechwriter is a little sus, but caring about the wife of a former Dem candidate is absolutely absurd. Either way, I still don't give a shit.

ort Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I know it doesn't matter, but look at Fox News dot com right now... it's blowing up all over the place.

Exactly. Fox News has been crying wolf for 30 years, and no one is buying it anymore except for stupid old white people who will be dead soon.

stepee Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 lol it’s the top story on fox news right now. Honestly it’s kind of a nice preview of shit like this being the big bad thing happening rather than the president ordering a hit on an American citizen or something.

Spork3245 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 It’s kinda bugging me that SNL has been a little “both sides-y” in their portrayal of Biden; they make Biden look basically senile and that Kamala is who we’re really voting for.

It’s comedy, not news. The whole “don’t make fun of my side” bit is a bit childish. The writers and comedians at snl are there to be funny, not political entities.

There isn't any sort of biting criticism or deeper satire of politics coming from the writers of SNL. It's just taking the surface level things the entire country is aware of and regurgitating it. It's the Family Guy school of comedy. "I recognize this reference, therefore it is funny." I'm no big brain comedy writer, but characters repeating things that happened the previous week verbatim ("Would you shut up, man!") as an applause line or having the character be transparently self aware of their flaws through the lines they read ("I'm not a crazy uncle, but this is a preview of Thanksgiving dinner") just isn't funny.

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Snl is just unfunny. Every time I've tried to give it a try it's cringy shit at best with Kate mckinnon as all your liberal faves and now it looks like we're going to be subjected to Jim Carrey which in itself should be reason to cancel the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
