It's not necessarily a matter of being "concerned" about equal time provisions, in some states they had no choice but to not air Al Sharpton's SNL on Saturday night.

Just like in California, they couldn't air Diff'rent Strokes reruns or Terminator because it gave those two canidates more tv time than the other candidates.

Though, technically, a NBC affiliate can choose to air the network program or not or to rerun a program or not. It's not a given that whatever the network has that the affiliate will automatically run it.
