That there was a “media-opoly,” in which a small number of corporations control everything people see, read, and consume, and can even control what gets covered on the news. Crazy, right? After the sketch aired, SNL honcho Lorne Michaels announced it would be yanked from reruns, replaced by a second Backstreet Boys performance. The cartoon has long been the subject of its own conspiracy theory, namely that NBC effectively deep-sixed it over its edgy truth-telling, especially considering it directly roasted NBC and its then-parent company General Electric." "“Yes, it was pulled after its initial airing & it’s easy to see why. BUT what always amazed me was that NBC let it on in the first place,” Smigel wrote in the caption. He also says that among the NBC/General Electric highers-up, there was “a real willingness not to censor the piece.” It did go through an “extensive note process,” even “beyond the Standards dept & up the executive ladder.” Video posted in fair use.

This is a weird flex by the artist, given Balenciaga's recent appearances in the news.
