SNL began its 50th season earlier this month with Emil Wakim, the first Lebanese-American cast member in the show’s history. The comedian made his debut on ‘Weekend Update,’ a popular segment of the sketch comedy series, last night.
"While our editors have photographs to corroborate the CT scan images, because of their graphic nature, we decided these photos — of children with gunshot wounds to the head or neck — were too horrific for publication."
