Did you miss Saturday Night Live this weekend? The highlight was "Governor Patterson" interrupting Amy Pohler's farewell speech...
Apparently, Patterson wasn't amused. The "New York Post" cites a spokesman for Paterson as saying the governor was disappointed NBC's sketch comedy show resorted to offensive stock blind jokes. Paterson's representative said the skit ridiculed people with physical disabilities and implied blind people are incompetent in serious jobs. Advocacy groups for the disabled have also come out against "Saturday Night Live" for the Paterson skit and many other instances where they say blind people are mocked for their disability. Paterson's spokesman, who described his boss as a the kind of guy who can take a joke, said the governor, quote, "is sure that 'Saturday Night Live,' with all its talent, can find a way to be funny without being offensive."
