I thought I would post this video up here as I was just reminded of it by another thread, and I really like it and not many people have seen it.

The Robert Smigel animated short film "Conspiracy Theory Rock" was part of a March 1998 "TV Funhouse" segment on Saturday Night Live. It was originally broadcast as part of the programme, but was removed from all subsequent airings. NBC claimed that it was pulled because it wasn't funny. The film is a scathing critique of corporate media ownership, including, coincidentally, NBC's ownership by General Electric/Westinghouse.
The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. The true measure of a man is this: how quickly he can respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give - Philip K. Dick.

Sometimes I'd watch SNL just to watch TV FunHouse, but I never got to watch this one. Thanks for posting! I bet this video really made them feel uncomfortable, haha!

Yeah I bet there was a good bit of tie loosening going on, a few top buttons opened and some vigorous sips of mineral water :chuckle:

Nice find WUB. :clap: I agree with psketti. It's pretty obvious why it was never re-aired again.
