Dissecting the O-Jay interview, lie by lie | TV Barn
As you all know, I’m in Conan’s camp. Jay may have gotten some unfair squeezing out by NBC back in 2004, but he did agree to step down from the Tonight Show.
Blaming it all on Conan’s ratings is a bit unfair for two reasons: he was doing well with the key demographic, and he had an awful lead-in that was driving viewers away from NBC completely for the night.
