Saturday Night Live recently lampooned the NFL scandal featuring Raiders coach Jon Gruden’s emails. In a rather unfunny skit typical of the show these days, SNL hit all the politically correct notes but missed an opportunity to tackle (pun intended) the elephant in the room: the double standard by which the woke elite select victims to sacrifice on the altar of cancel culture.
Imagine this skit instead: A faux NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell stands at the podium, apologizing for Gruden’s racism and misogyny and expressing the NFL’s zero-tolerance policy when it comes to such issues, while Dr. Dre and Eminem rehearse for their 2022 Super Bowl halftime show performances, featuring lyrics that encourage race-based violence against white people and glorify violence against women.
