With McCarthy playing Spicer, ‘SNL’ cranks up Trump satire

In this Friday, Jan. 13, 2017, file photo, executive producer Melissa McCarthy speaks at the “Nobodies” panel at Viacom’s TV Land portion of the Winter Television Critics Association press tour, in Pasadena, Calif. McCarthy lampooned White House press secretary Sean Spicer in a “Saturday Night Live” sketch on Saturday, Feb. 4, 2017, where she taunted reporters as “losers,” fired a water gun at the press corps and even used the podium to bash a Wall Street Journal journalist.
