Video - Saturday Night Live: Tom DeLay ethics skit

Saturday Night Live mocks Tom DeLay and his use of heavy-handed unethical tactics.



Video in Windows Media format (3 minute)

1. Was this parody? Or was it just good reporting?

Except for the film clips, this skit looks exactly like what reports about DeLay on the national news SHOULD look like. IOW, this wild parody of how bad DeLay is, is really a pretty accurate picture of how bad DeLay truly is.

Between SNL and The Daily Show, it's refreshing to see some solid reporting lately.

Thanks for posting this.

2. saw it last night...

and most of the audience seemed uncomfortable at best. There was very little laughter during the skit, and the only discernable laughter seemed very uncomfortable. Perhaps it hit a little too close to the truth for most people...

5. yes, not "your typical lightweight comedy."

or maybe there were a few too many exurbans in the crowd :-)?
