Yeah nothing scarier than impotent old men too chickenshit to do anything other than make terrible strawmen drawings about brown people.

I forget exactly what era of SNL that was, but I recall the 90s being fairly solid, making Tinsley's opinions suspect :colbert:

I had to look this guy up.

quote:

During the February 24, 1996 episode, Macdonald made a controversial joke about the sentencing of John Lotter, one of the two men who committed the notorious murder of Brandon Teena: "In Falls City, Nebraska, John Lotter has been sentenced to death for attempting to kill three people in what prosecutors called a plot to silence a cross-dressing female who had accused him of rape. Now this might strike some viewers as harsh, but I believe everyone involved in this story 'deserved to die'."

After the announcement that Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley planned to divorce, Macdonald joked about their irreconcilable differences on Weekend Update: "She's more of a stay-at-home type, and he's more of a homosexual pedophile." He followed this up a few episodes later with a report about the singer's collapse and hospitalization. Referring to a report of how Jackson had decorated his hospital room with giant photographs of Shirley Temple, Macdonald remarked that viewers should not get the wrong idea, adding, "Michael Jackson is a homosexual pedophile." The joke elicited audible gasps from some audience members. He responded to this by saying, "What? He is a homosexual pedophile."

[..]

A particularly infamous joke never made it to air. Norm showed the famous photo of naked Vietnamese children running from a South Vietnamese napalm attack, and said, "In other news, Woody Allen is dating again!" Norm described the audience as projecting a "pure, crazy hate" directed at him.

Macdonald's time with Saturday Night Live effectively ended in late 1997, when he was fired from the Weekend Update segment upon the insistence of NBC West Coast Executive Don Ohlmeyer, who pressured the producers to remove him, explaining that Macdonald was "not funny." Some believe that Don Ohlmeyer's friendship with O.J. Simpson � a celebrity whom Macdonald often antagonized on the show � may have fueled Ohlmeyer's decision, but Macdonald has been quoted as saying that he finds that thesis "weird" and takes Ohlmeyer's explanation at face value.

...yeah

I basically remember Norm from his otherwise forgettable sitcom and his bit on the SNL Jeopardy sketches.

Early 90's was good, late 90's we're good, but from what I've heard and seen, 94-96 was awful. Of course MacDonald is one of the big reasons for that, so Tinsley is full poo poo.
