"Pressure continued to mount on NBC to cancel Donald Trump's guest-host appearance on this weekend's Saturday Night Live as a coalition of advocacy groups delivered petitions to the network Wednesday calling for him to be dropped from the show.

The petitions delivered to 30 Rockefeller Plaza, home of NBC and Saturday Night Live, marked the latest attempts to dissuade the network from allowing the Republican presidential hopeful to host the show, with the National Hispanic Leadership Agenda earlier asking that NBC reconsider the decision.

"There's mounting evidence that Donald Trump's racist demagoguery is resulting in real-world violence and physical and verbal intimidation," said Mushed Zaheed, deputy political director of Credo Action, one of the participating groups, in a statement.

...

Other participating groups included the National Hispanic Media Coalition, MoveOn.org and National Council of La Raza. About two-dozen protesters were on hand as the petitions were delivered to NBC's midtown Manhattan offices. Some chanted "dump Trump" and carried signs bearing the same phrase.

..."


Eff NBC.

3. My thoughts exactly.

Constant booing and hissing, let him hear the disapproval. There's a part of me that wants to think that's Lorne Michaels' intent.

2. It will probably be the biggest audience SNL has had in years. "It's gonna be HUGE..." eom
