Polish joke on NBC - New Low for SNL
On Saturday, March 15, 2008 a new low could be viewed by the very few that still
watch Saturday Night Life show on NBC. Amy Poehler made a what she, the show writers
and the SNL/NBC thought was a good joke about modernization of the Polish military. The brain sweating
they came up with was so idiotic and unfunny, the show's live audience was quiet and
Amy quickly switched to another item on the show agenda.
We think the cast and writers of the show are not funny for at least
the last 15
years and the strike they recently had, should had ended up with their firing.
SNL, NBC and parent company GE once again showed off their total lack of good
taste, zero creativity and total inability to produce anything that is good, funny, or entertaining. We

link below and chose Saturday Night Live, a show to comment on. Link to comment

Historical
lie broadcast on Fox Networks.
BOYCOTT
ALL FOX NETWORKS
On November 14, 2007 Fox Television's "Back To You" broadcast an outrageously offensive historical lie veiled as comedic
banter, which only makes it all the more insidious ("..it's in your Polish blood, like kielbasa and collaborating with the Nazis").
Officials of the Polish American Congress are demanding a sit-down with Fox
owner Rupert Murdoch and to have the show stop referring to the character as
Polish.
