SNL Skit: Times Square Bomber Gives a Press Conference

Posted on May 9, 2010

This skit is from the dress rehearsal from last night's Saturday Night Live starring Fred Armisen as the Times Square bomber and Maya Rudolph as his translator. The bomber is giving an American-style press conference, complaining about the media's treatment of him and the invasion of his privacy.

The script was leaked to Politico ahead of time and SNL pulled the skit from the live broadcast, which is a shame. NBC is reportedly furious about the leak. It's a very funny skit that makes fun of the bomber. Take a look:
