He needs it, too.
I think this is a tall hurdle to jump...
Thompson is looking into his contract obligations to "Law & Order" and talking with producers about how his run could affect the franchise. Election law requires equal air time for candidates. If enforced, the law could mean that more than 100 episodes over the past five seasons of "Law & Order" and its various spinoffs might have to be removed from the airwaves during Thompson's run—or other candidates could demand equal air time. (But not their own show, says former Federal Election Commission official Larry Noble)
You've just got to know that the dem's attorney's looking at this, as well.
I wonder if this means that all L&O episodes must be removed, or just the ones Fred was in? The former seems impossible, the latter seems doable.
I'm also wondering if the dems would try to make the case that even right now, if he runs, the current episodes should have been removed.
Honestly, this could become a nightmare for us.
:O)
