Don Ohlmeyer for one. He’s the NBC executive who had Norm fired as SNL’s Weekend Update anchor because he wouldn’t stop mocking Don’s friend, famous double murderer, O.J. Simpson.
Oh yeah I remember that now, Norm Macdonald was fired from Saturday night live “for not being funny,” and he found it odd when he was invited back a couple years later to give the opening monologue.
It was great when Ohlmeyer went on Colbert Report and got mocked for saying NBC was going to lose money on the Winter Olympics. Colbert did a fund drive to help, and presented him with a giant check for like $5.08
It’s also great that he’s been dead since 2017. Conan was right when he called him one of the silverback gorillas running TV.

The worse thing about that whole ordeal was the hypocrisy.
