That's 18 times more than the number of people who "liked" the “Betty White to Host SNL (please?)!” Facebook page. Maybe the media coverage of the Facebook page had a little effect but half a million people, even to a crappy network like NBC, is nothing. Bottom line, White was on SNL not because of Facebook but because the Peacock Network knew it could make $$$ off of her. Facebook's role is greatly overrated.
