Actor Alec Baldwin blasted Donald Trump over the weekend, but also offered some advice after the president-elect angrily tweeted about the performer’s portrayal of him on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.”
On Saturday night’s episode, the show spoofed Trump’s meeting with former Republican nominee Mitt Romney, who is rumored to be in the running for secretary of state. The president-elect on Sunday took aim at SNL, asking the show for “equal-time” — a rule used in U.S. radio and television that gives equal air-time to any opposing political candidate.

I watched parts of @nbcsnl Saturday Night Live last night. It is a totally one-sided, biased show – nothing funny at all. Equal time for us?

I would make appointments that encouraged people, not generate fear and doubt.
