I can see why NBC has tried to erase all memory of this skit, because SNL nailed it on the head.

Nope, even that one is edited. If you watch the video at the link you provided and then find the transcript, you’ll see that something Fred Armisen said (he’s playing Barney Frank) is not there. If I can find the original FR thread on this I’ll post back for proof.

But it did still include the later-edited caption “People Who Should Be Shot”.

Love the Soros Tag “Owner of the Democratic Party”.

We think we have the original, but do we? Go to 6:09 in the video and see if the part below in red is in your video. It's not in mine and I thought I had the original too.

Frank replies: “Not at all. There's an important social contract here. When deceitful housing lenders play by the rules, and bribe members of Congress with campaign contributions, they have a right to expect that we will protect them from losing money. Now let me say something else here. Many of you are probably wondering, where did that $700 billion missing from our economy go? To help answer that, let me introduce our good friend, billionaire hedge fund manager, George Soros...”

Why the panic to edit or remove it, is it a ‘truth hurts’ issue or a ‘slander’ issue?

[earthFriendly]

Here is the original, un-edited version:

“Frobidden”

Is that a J.R.R. Tolkien character?

(Spell...check...anyone...?)

Anyway, Soros is going to cast a longer and even darker shadow over the First Amendment, by the looks of this.

Obviously, David Gregory’s wife (VP Counsel for Fannie Mae)
ordered NBC to shut their ‘pie hole’.

The Frobidden "SNL" Bailout Skit

Played by Eddie Murphy?

Thanks for posting the video of the press conference...is there a parody of it somewhere?

[Ditter]

That is fantastic, thanks so much for posting. Wish I could forward it to my e mail list.

Now how much power would you have to have to pull something from the entire internet?

  Can't stop the signal, Mal.

[silverleaf]

what does it say about our society when political humor about powerful men of one ideoleogy only has to be censored, while there are no holds barred on the youngsters of Sarah palin?

NBC is good at erasure. NBC’s Juanita Brodrick interview has largely gone down the memory hole, too. Thanks to MiaT for keeping it accessible . . .

[Burkean]

I can’t remember from where, but I found a place to actually download the video rather than just stream it. I wanted to make sure I had a copy of for posterity.

here ya go.
