SNL Skit Rips Into TSA Procedures
November 23rd, 2010 - 1:42 am ICT by Angela Kaye MasonNov 22 (THAINDIAN NEWS) When ‘Saturday Night Live’ released their skit on the procedures of the TSA and their policies of patting down passengers who are trying to board airplanes at American airports, the result was a sadly true but funny false commercial which also touched on the late night “date call” service ads which are seen on television.
The sexy women who beg you to call and get the chance to “chat live” with an operator were combined with the not-so-sexy TSA officers to encourage passengers to refuse a full body scan, “and then the fun begins” they assure you. They promise that the TSA agents are there for you, helping you to feel less lonely this Holiday Season.
“It’s our business to touch yours.” The ad shares. See the skit below.
