Conde's Beckman Bolts; AOL Begins 1,200 Layoffs
January 12, 2010
It's gone from
bad to worse at NBC late night. The network
decides to give
Jay Leno the 11:35-12:05 p.m. slot, much to the chagrin of
Conan O'Brien, who's
gone on the offensive. Fox
wants to recruit the current
Tonight Show host, but language in his contract might make that move impossible (and Fox's affiliates
don't want him). Who's to blame, in the words of
Craig Ferguson, for the "atrocious management by a once great American network"? A whole
host of people, but it sure makes for some great TV...
