The recent skit on NBC’s Saturday Night Live has posed a timely question – Does satire have a place in addressing serious issues like antisemitism?
Former “Saturday Night Live” star Cecily Strong backed out of playing Rep. Elise Stefanik on the show this past weekend because she was “uncomfortable” with the heavily criticised cold-open sketch.
Strong appeared as a guest in the dress rehearsal ahead of the live show, then changed her mind “last minute” about playing Stefanik in the sketch. #ticker today #snl #antisemitism #featured
