Another week, another Saturday Night Live cold open serving up an is-it-real-or-isn’t-it parody of Fox News.
The last one was a pre-Election Day reminder of the role Fox News played in making the distant and not-at-all-dangerous migrant caravan seem like a threat. This one has more of a Weekend Update feel, if Weekend Update featured morally bankrupt hosts like Jeanine Pirro (Cecily Strong) and Laura Ingraham (Kate McKinnon). The SNL writer’s room is clearly having fun coming up with fake brands that would advertise on Fox.
The sketch ends with McKinnon-as-Ingraham interviewing a man named “Vape God” (Pete Davidson). The segment is riffing on an IRL Ingraham interview that actually happened, and — believe it or not — Davidson’s parody is pretty close to the real thing.
