Late Night Beef: Jay Leno Disses Dave Letterman?
Late Night Beef: Jay Leno Disses Dave Letterman?
Tonight on The Jay Leno Show, the host once again addressed rumors that he was being “fired” by NBC.
Speaking in a tone of mock-outrage, Leno joked, “That means I didn’t sleep with my staff for nothing!”
Pow! With one shot, Leno dragged David Letterman’s problems into this latest version of the late-night wars.
Then, referring to a possible shuffling of Leno into the 11:35 p.m. time slot now occupied by Conan O’Brien, the host added that NBC has devised a plan in which “all parties will be screwed equally.”
Leno also showed a postage stamp with his image on it, saying its release was imminent. Unfortunately, he said, “it gets cancelled after four months!”
