Jay Leno Uses Humor as Defense
Jay Leno has taken some hits this past week. With his ‘prime time’ show canceled, pulled, and jerked off – Leno is looking to return to the late night carnival circuit.

NBC has completely failed in their presentation of the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing China. A masterfully choreographed 2,008 drummers, rhythmically moving in unison, were to cast a staggering effect of art in motion.

Son, Tim Russert played his cards at the table of a master. He came up short. But that is why Hillary Clinton is busy running for President and Tim Russert is busy sucking up to his buddy Chris Matthews and the corporate bosses who manage the media. One can almost see Russert thinking, “Oh Boy, […]
