Not Funny? SNL Completely Avoids Harvey Weinstein Scandal

Mediaite


. . . "There was no mention of the controversial Oscar-winning producer, not even in the Weekend Update segment. Anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che did however push for gun control in the wake of the Las Vegas massacre.
"SNL isn’t the first to avoid this scandal. Every late-night talk show host from Stephen ColbertJimmy KimmelTrevor NoahJimmy FallonSeth Meyers, and Bill Maher did not crack any jokes at Weinstein’s expense since the exposé was published Thursday morning.
"Tonight’s SNL was hosted by Wonder Woman star Gal Gadotand featured musical guest Sam Smith and Jason Aldeanwho opened the show in honor of the victims of last week’s tragedy." . . .
