Then they link back to the Malkin article, which again has no real content other than the transcribed skit.

So my question is, how does this violate Amendment Numero Uno?
I agree, how is this violating anything? The first amendment is freedom of speech, not freedom to make someone tell us something. So NBC decided not to air a skit SNL wanted to do, so what, it's their network. I do it on a daily basis when part of my lower brain tells me to whistle at that foxy lady in the bikini, but the rest of my brain quickly vetoes that idea.
