Conan Will Not Do Tonight Show In New Time Slot

World News Update by EQUITIES Magazine

This afternoon, Tonight Show host Conan O’Brien released a statement saying, “I sincerely believe that delaying the Tonight Show into the next day to accommodate another comedy program will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting.” In other words, he will not do the Tonight Show if airs after Jay Leno.

 

“My hope is that NBC and I can resolve this quickly so that my staff, crew, and I can do a show we can be proud of, for a company that values our work,” he said, “Have a great day and, for the record, I am truly sorry about my hair; it’s always been that way.”
