JaggedSac said: Conan did not force Jay out. He said he wanted to be on earlier no matter where he was working. NBC did not want to let him go so they made a deal. None of this would have happened if NBC would have just let him go. Which is exactly where they are now. I do not blame Jay for anything. I don't like his show, but this isn't his fault. He was merely someone steam rolled by the inept management of NBC. Mainly, Zucker. NBC is doing so terrible now that the other networks actually have sympathy for them. And do you have any more recent ratings. The ones in that link are skewed from the premier week. |

People won't even come out to hear Leno talk about the mismanagement... WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS RUNNING A RERUN.
vs say Conan who's ratings have gone up since the controversy.
