Howard Stern has never minced words about how much he hates (and I choose my words carefully here – Stern “hates” Leno).
Stern shared his thoughts on Leno’s controversial reemergence as host The Tonight Show with Harry Smith of CBS Earl Morning. The radio talk show shock jock spared no words and made no attempt to [...]
TV and radio talk show host Tony Kornheiser of Pardon the Interruption has been placed on the back-burner for two weeks by his bosses at ESPN for disparaging remarks he made about co-worker Hannah Storm.
The remarks were odd and seemed almost personal as he levied insults against Storm about her appearance:
“Hannah Storm in a horrifying, [...]

Senator Evan Bayh has a lot of explaining to do. Walking away from seeking re-election and potentially handing Republicans another senate seat makes him as popular as the girl at the party with coldsore on her lip. Should he have quit? Is he pulling a Palin? Will his decision make it harder for the Democrats [...]
Chelsea Handler (@chelsealately) hands Giuliana Rancic (@giulianarancic) (E! News Correspondent) a reality check in her monologue for yelling for the attention of heartthrob George Clooney on the Golden Globes red carpet like a thug hailing a cab in New York. But really, who could blame Rancic. After all, this is George Clooney we’re talking about.
Handler [...]
Last night, Saturday Night Live (@nbcsnl) turned its lethal pen on NBC’s catastrophic mismanagement of its late night talk show lineup. The skit, involves a Larry King Live (@kingsthings) segment with Larry King (played by Fred Armisen) interviewing a befuddled and cornballish Jay Leno in head-to-toe denim (hot!) (played by Darrell Hammond) and an uninspired, [...]
FOX News talk show host Bill Bill O’Reilly unleashed statements about NBC’s implosion in the wake of a bloody late night talk show war on his show, The O’Reilly Factor.
While interviewing a FOX political analyst, O’Reilly lays out what he believes was NBC’s road to perdition beginning with their support of the Obama administration. He [...]
The most surprising fact learned this past month watching NBC implode under the weight of its own miscalculations that have irreparably damaged both its brand and its late night talk show lineup is, undoubtedly, how many celebrities (mainly comedians and other talk show hosts) have openly expressed their disdain for Jay Leno.

Oswalt is a thoughtful comedian. He seems to one who can get lost in his own thoughts analyzing the world around him and then translate those lucid thoughts in a way that brings new dimension to your perspective as well. So when I stumbled upon this video of him being interviewed by Death Ray Radio [...]
It could have easily been overlooked as slight ribbing amongst friends (or, at the very least, journalistic colleagues), but the video clip below of Joe Scarborough (@joenbc), Mika Brzezinski (@morningmika) and the rest of the crew on MSNBC’s Morning Joe repeatedly insulting John Harris (Editor-in-Chief of Politico.com @politico) for featuring “low-brow” content on Politico is [...]
Apparently, some of the lessons learned in prison by daytime talk show diva Martha Stewart (@marthastewart) are serving her well on the outside. While recidivism is not a concern, her recent behavior compels us to question whether she’s been rehabilitated.
Before I begin, let’s start with the jailhouse lessons. It has become common knowledge that when [...]
