Conan O’Cryin
January 13, 2010
NBC and their affiliates have been struggling with ratings since they experimented with a prime time talk show starring Jay Leno. Not only have ratings for that show been poor, it has not served as a good lead-in to local 11pm news broadcasts. That in turn may be one of the reasons that The Tonight Show, hosted by Conan O’Brien, has seen a decline in viewership over previous years. On January 11, 2010, it was announced that Leno’s show has been canceled. It was proposed that Leno host a 30 minute show after the late news and the Tonight Show begin at 12:05am. In a public posting, O’Brien, stated that this is not an acceptable solution because it “will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting.” click here for limerick
