WATCH: SNL pokes fun at Atlanta’s bid for Amazon HQ
"Saturday Night Live" is joking about Atlanta's traffic, accents and Southern cooking after Amazon named the city as one of 20 finalists for its second headquarters.
Not even Coca-Cola, Chick-fil-A and Waffle House escaped comedians' jibes on the latest episode of "SNL."
The episode also took aim at three other cities contending for the internet retail company’s business: Boston, Miami and Newark, N.J.
Amazon is deciding where to locate as many as 50,000 employees at a headquarters that would supplement its main campus in Seattle.
