Like my man said previously 😂😂😂

Where are this girls parents? Why is she talking to reporters & being allowed to watch SNL anyway? Guess the whole family wants their 15 min of fame. Have they never eaten chicken? Now, fire up the fryer or go buy some Chicken Helper.

❄️

I loved the joke

I don't think the chicken was offended by the joke. No reason anyone else should be.

For those of is who live is farm country and have chickens in our yards, roads, and fields... we certainly get the joke!

Who cares. Tell her go cry about something important

HOLD MY BEER.... NOW I made joke about your cripple chicken. 👌

DIFFERENTLY ABLED non-human co-resident, assholes!

I’m of the mind that a chicken is akin to an ant. Is there an Overton Window-like scale for how we should feel about animals?

Well looks juicy and plump ready for the BBQ.

I’m no psychic, but I would bet my next paycheck who this kid’s parents voted for.

Replace it with another chicken that looks the same and can walk, claim it’s a miracle!

그들은 전세계 the disabled 에게 실망을 주었다. 이는 인권침해다. 전세계 장애인들에게 사과하고 프로그램 폐지하라.

Unacceptable... They (SNL) shouldn't have...👎

This reply section is AIDS.

This comment section is AIDS.

Fry the fucker.

Well i mean SNL hasnt been amusing in ages

So?

Haven’t watched SNL since Murphy and Piscapo...

It's BBQ'd chicken night folks! Yummy!

So. What you think SNL cares? They only care about more exposure to the celebrity status.

The Colonel isn’t either

Those cads at SNL ... isn't it enough that they mock a President that they have to pick on a kids pet chicken?

Fk that chicken 🐓🍗

This is AP news, what a joke...

Lighten up or you'll turn into a Republican.

I mean, REALLY? Nobody cares!

Trust me, a lot of people have been offended for a lot of years over SNL so called jokes.

It’s OK. No one finds SNL amusing anymore.

Like snl more If this person is seriously upset

Lmao

There goes Vermont in 2020... Damn East Coast elites!!!

Ok

i just hope that chicken is not as salty

SNL is a dumpster fire for liberals.

Shame on SNL for mocking this chicken and the girl. Treat animals with kindness and respect.

What do you expect from a show that thinks disabilities are funny. A child can learn sensitivity towards others from animals and bitds. They should take this as a learning experience. Learn from a child.

Please refrain from posting non-newsworthy stories, AP. Thanks.

Wow... people, she's a child, cut her some slack

Someone should inform the poor child that however well intentioned, not all things deserve a perfect life. Because that would in turn infringe on other beings perfect life. And the universe just really doesn't give a shit.

There really are a bunch of cruel boneheads out there. SNL is staffed with a whole crew of them.

Hahah good for her. Even ten year olds know that show sucks and is rarely funny, if ever.

Girl being not happy about joke is OKAY! AP: THIS IS NOT NEWS! PERSON REACTS TO JOKE IS NOT A STORY.

the US has gotten to the point that the most ridiculous newsstory is funnier than the parody of it. Also a disabled chicken should be named 'Soup of the Day.' It's a Chicken!

I didn’t even realize that there were people who still watch nbcsnl and find it to be relevant or amusing.... 🤔

😂

I bet it'd be wheely wheely tasty though

Which is one of many reasons I don't watch that shit show. They're not funny or talented. They're just cruel. I hope Lorn Michaels gets pancreatic cancer.

Eh. I gots nuthin'.

Looks like SNL committed a real fowl...

Join the club. Lots of people aren’t amused by SNL.

Why did the chicken cross the road? It's didn't cause it's disabled

Get over it.

No one cares.

firstworldproblems

She'll get over it, in the meantime, someone take her to KFC.

Well there are dogs who use wheelchairs and I’d have to think they’ve been the subject of an SNL joke or two

SNLUpdate nbcsnl Here’s my 3-legged dog. Should I just put her out of her misery and eat her too? This little girl has it right, all animals deserve a perfect life. Tasteless segment.

Look, this isn't a person with a disability - that would be a solid reason for outrage - this is a $5 fill up box with tricked out wheels. There's jokes to be had.

nbcsnl is embarrassing does anyone still watch that liberal trash

nbcsnl Here’s my 3-legged dog. Should I just put her out of her misery and eat her too? This little girl has it right, all animals deserve a perfect life. Tasteless segment.

300 million people in this country but let’s make news of this one offended person with a fucking chicken

No one is amused with SNL anymore

Kid here's some advice never care what anybody else think's about you or yours cause the only one's opinion that matters is yours.

Just go ahead and eat the chicken or dog whatever you prefer.

Who gives a shit?

Make a happy meal out that bih.

Htf her parents let this escalate to a reporter and an interview? Nutsy cookoo in the upper ding dong that's how. When she is 24 and still can't face the world I'm sure the parental basement is available.

This story is clucked up.

Honestly deserves an apology more than Dan Crenshaw did.

Yeah, SNL may of gone to far with that one. Can see positive and negative about it.

'Any creature, no matter how big, no matter how small, they deserve to have a perfect life.” Awwww

I've been a fan of SNL since the 70s. This joke wasn't any funnier than poking at disabled in any way. In poor taste guys.

Cluck off!

the replies to this are really telling. go eat a dog with a mobility device if you’re so dead-set on eating someone’s pet. y’all probably dgaf if a disabled person is left to die—which is fine if you’re treated the same way. y’all should get eaten for your bad takes.

Well I would have eaten her pet chicken....

Really? She believes SNL is fowl. Lol.

ChickenLivesMatter

well it is to bad but Ive never seen a PET CHICKEN and I do not think that animal protection laws apply to chickens ... its like a person claiming a peacock is a service animal .... this is outta control and the sillness needs to stop, its a CHICKEN.

First off that show is for adults. Second if you never learn to take a joke like is going to be difficult.

Nobody cares?

Lol. Every creature deserves a perfect life. I know you are 10, but maybe we don’t pander to this.

Kentucky Fried Limpin’

I know a girl who needs to get a thicker skin.

Can't we cluck all just cluck get along?

Alternate headline: 'Vermont girl has no sense of humor'.

SNL still relevant?

She’s not old enough to watch anyway.

That’s clucked up.

That’s a lot bigger problems out there

Can everyone please quit getting butt hurt?

And it'll just be us and the other parasites and vermin pretty soon

Eat the chicken and give the wheelchair to a pet, not food.

She should say this to a republican.

The saddest part of this story is that there's a reporter, paid by the AP, out bounding the disabled poultry beat. I smell a Pulitzer...

Well put the damn thing out its misery and eat it already

Have her go on Weekend Update for an official apology, but have her wear an eyepatch.

I think people have a long, long way to go when it comes to respecting all life on earth, especially comedians it seems, there is no hierarchy, if anything we are the over abundant vermin, birds are awesome!

I am not amused by Fox News. So?

stop it, don’t give this nonsense life. Jesus!

Really

Slow news cycle?

I get that people wont like when they become the target of a joke but that's life. Your either bitter about it or embrace the meme.

nbcsnl I am offended someone has a disabled pet chicken.

Its like the story of the pitiable ignorance afflicted disabled Rooster in the white house being ridiculed by SNL...that the Rooster thinks could be unfaked by FBI investigating whether they are colluding with Americans like 'crooked Hillary' did

SNL clucked up.

Eheheh!

.realDonaldTrump scolded nbcsnl and called it a 'biased, left wing hit job'. Then said, 'speaking of left wing...'

Oh no! Cancel SNL

What happens now?

Oh no..mister bill.guess they have to apologise to her funky chicken

Please fucking hurry Thanos.

Someone being offended by a joke isn’t fucking news

'Ten-year-old Alora Wood of Underhill, Vermont, tells NECN-TV that she knows the segment was meant to be a joke, but says what if it was a dog.' It is not a dog though. Tell the girl to get some thicker skin so she can get through life.

Don't be a dick, it's her pet. :

Can’t make a joke without offending anyone these days...

Lorne Michaels is a fucking monster.
