Seth Meyers Bans Donald Trump from Being a Guest on “Late Night”

This may be a symbolic gesture at best, but we can only hope that only a few more shows follow suit here. 

As a result of Donald Trump banning The Washington Post from covering his campaign events, Late Night host Seth Meyers is banning Trump from being a guest on Late Night. 

Seth announced this during his “A Closer Look” segment that delved into Trump’s bigoted response to the horrific Orlando shooting this past weekend.

Again, this may be a small push back against Trump. However, if other shows do ban him and Trump won’t get to, let’s say, play a silly game on The Tonight Show and get less airtime, this will have been worth it.

For Some Reason, The FCC Bans an Episode of High School USA

Sure, there was probably some objectionable material that the FCC thought shouldn’t be allowed (and that most of us probably wouldn’t get that riled up about) on network television as Fox ADHD’s High School USA is shown at a broadcast network.

But, what effect does that really have these days other than building an interest in watching that particular censored material and, with the help of the Internet and, in this case, Hulu, really easy to find and watch?
