Before the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary special aired Rolling Stone ranked all 141 of its cast members. Coming in damn near last was Norm MacDonald, at 135, and he sure hasn't forgotten about it. The comedian's Twitter account has been dominated since yesterday by retweets of a bunch of fans griping about his ranking.
@Sickroy6 @RollingStone @normmacdonald why is #JusticeForNorm starting 3 weeks late?

@normmacdonald was to SNL what Galileo was to the Church. Misunderstood and frightening because of it.

@normmacdonald This is how far @RollingStone would have to over-correct to make up for their egregious blunder pic.twitter.com/zIRrs01NvQ

The biggest problems with the @RollingStone #SNL list were @normmacdonald was too low and @dan_aykroyd wasn't number one.

“@Barker_Lake: @normmacdonald You're easily top 5. Fuck @RollingStone, scum of the Earth.” Let's be realistic, Top 20. That's fair.

In my mind only Eddie Murphy and @normmacdonald ever carried the show. I always watched other casts for the ensemble.

@evilboner @normmacdonald it seems that @RollingStone is a low rent print version of Buzzfeed these days. I can't wait for their HP quiz!

It's unclear what MacDonald's personal retweet policy is (his bio doesn't say), but in this case it's safe to assume retweets equal endorsements.
