Tina Fey gets a little of her own Sarah Palin medicine

| | Comments (1)

So yesterday, NBC breathlessly releases this media alert:

"Tina Fey is doing a 30 minutes conference call this Friday, October 24th at 10:00 a.m. pacific time (adjust to your time zone) to talk about the upcoming season of '30 Rock.' I know that we'll have a great deal of interest in the call, but please remember that this is a '30 Rock' call...not a 'Saturday Night Live' call."

I'm guessing this met with one of those occasional instances of TV-journalist pushback, with everyone basically saying, "WTF? Tina goes on the TeeVee and makes fun of that Sarah Palin for not giving straight answers to legitimate news questions, you betcha, and now you're not going to let Tina answer legitimate news questions about that Sarah Palin? Let us express our righteous umbrage!"

(This is either Tina Fey or Sarah Palin. I forget which. If the clothes are expensive, it's Palin.)

So, today, NBC issues this tasty morsel:

"Unfortunately, due to last minute production scheduling changes, we have to postpone Friday's conference call with Tina Fey. I will be in touch soon to reschedule the call within the next few weeks."

Translation: We'll do it sometime after Election Day, when that whole Sarah Palin thing will be a moot point.

(This is the other one, responding to NBC's latest press alert.)
