I read this yesterday and was pretty amazed. I'm not sure that the equal time is still in effect (although I don't know it isn't. I just know that the right wing radio brigade has been complaining for 3 years that Obama is going to reinstate the equal time rule), but I do know that Hannity doesn't claim to be news, Fox doesn't claim that Hannity is news, yet he's had Romney on a dozen times at least.

If I were Fallon, I'd be happy to invite Romney to slow play the news.

It isn't in effect, which is why talk radio ballooned into such a force. The same with Fox News. So yeah, his point is a complete fabrication.

They're just furious because they know that if Romney tried to do Late Night he'd turn to Questlove and say "Oh Porterhouse, look at the wax build up on these shoes! I want that wax stripped off there, then I want them creamed and buffed with a fine chamois, and I want them now. Chop chop!"

And if a Republican wins, we'll complain about how liberals are derailing the real policies and destroying America. Because liberals always secretly sink those infallible conservative policies.

Looks like Obama deserves some more TV time, not Romney.

Every article on right wing propaganda websites is full of corny insults, how can someone read that and think it could possibly be objective.

Do these morons really think NBC won't be broadcasting Romney's campaign ads? FFS!

There's your equal time, right there.

Umm, even if the writer was correct, wouldn't NBC be obligated to provide equal time for the opponent for the position that Obama is currently running for... the Democratic nomination for President?

The equal time rule states that if a licensee permits a person "who is a legally qualified candidate for any public office to use a broadcasting station, he shall afford equal opportunities to all other such candidates for that office in the use of such broadcasting station."

I'm sure Jimmy Fallon would be more than happy to have Mitt Romney on his program. Problem solved.

Breitbart dies and yet his festering zombie anus continues to pucker and shower us with fecal nuggets of maggot-ridden derp, lovingly dropped directly into the mouths of a waiting Drew and his Modmins to passionately chew up and try to spit into our mouths like some Whiskey soaked, welfare decrying, food stamp collecting, trailer slut-Hillbilly Mama bird trying to feed her baby tax right-offs.

Well, they would need that if the equal time law still existed at all. Usually there is a nugget of some truth at the center of a propaganda story to "root" it in a way but this one is wrong from every facet.
 
2012-04-26 01:51:53 PM
Ya know, I really like Obama at a personal level. The guy is way cool, classy as all get out. I just wish he wasn't in over his head. The guy is simply not qualified to be President. If only he had put in more than a partial term as Senator, if only he had done a turn as Governor, if only, if only...

Colin Powell would have been awesome as prez. The Black Ike, if you like.

I was hoping for a black Bill Clinton. We got a black Jimmy Carter.

Romney would talk how he loves the show because the chairs are just the right height and the lights are the perfect brightness. Then Romney would talk about how he doesn't actually watch the show but he is good friends on NBC's board of directors and then make fun of an audience member's clothing asking them if they purchased it at Wal-Mart.

Romney doesn't have the Republican nomination yet. He's not really a presidential candidate.

You said "black" thrice.

I'd ask whether you're gonna vote for Obama or Romney and why, but I think I already know the answer.
 
2012-04-26 01:55:08 PM
Has Romney or Obama been confirmed as a presidential nominee by their party's convention yet? The answer is no, so equal time provisions even if they are enforcable, are not in effect.
