POPSJay Leno Impersonates Kimmel Impersonating A Reporter Show business is all about one-upping the competition. Last week at press tour, Jimmy Kimmel posed as a reporter demanding answers from ABC President of Entertainment Steve McPherson about the fate of his late-night show. Although McPherson says he is committed to Kimmel, whose show took off with viewers this year, he also pointed out last week that there could be room for both late-night hosts at his network. Not so fast, said Graboff Monday, adding that NBC Universal is still talking to Leno about staying at the company in a different capacity. “When we made the deal with Jay four years ago, we made a long-term deal with him,” Graboff said. “We’ve been talking to him pretty much that whole time about the future beyond the ‘Tonight Show.’ We can’t force him to do something. We’re presenting him with a number of opportunities that we think will be great and we’re hoping that he eventually thinks will be great as well.”

POPSGag me The reason they aren't writing jokes is summed up in what Stewart said, "So far, our take is that he is positioning himself to be on a coin". They are so in the tank for Obama. At least they are honest. What puzzles me is that they must know by now he doesn't have any new ideas. He doesn't have any friends that he won't throw under a bus. He, as it turns out, is just another politician who thinks he can get away with saying one thing to one audience, another to another and then deny he ever said or took any position. This guy is not even slick about it and in this day and age EVERYTHING is on video. But everyone is giving him a pass. And for what. SO that we can have Carter part II. JEesh!
