Conan O'Brien out of Tonight Show and Jay Leno in

Twitter is abuzz with the news that
NBC is now dumping Irish American funnyman
Conan O'Brien and reinstating
Jay Leno in "The
Tonight Show."
TMZ says that Leno has made a new deal with NBC, which gives him "The Tonight Show" from 11:35 pm - 12:35 pm.
How can a media giant - which is supposed to be in the communications business - screw up this badly on public relations?
They've managed to alienate people who didn't even like Conan - and if they thought ratings were bad before they can only get worse now.
There's no winner here.

Not a huge fan of Conan but I am on his side in the whole NBC mess. Heck, I am still mad the Tonight Show didn't go to Letterman back in the day.
