Why is Jay Leno every time a big leading night loses work? Back in the 1990s, when David Letterman lost on hosting Show tonightLeno was there to demand victory. If Conan O’Brien shortly replaced Leno and then was fired from Show tonightLeno was there to return his old job back. This month CBS fired critic Arch -tramp Stephen Colbert and canceled Late the show– Terved Term Terms of Trump administration that the new CBS owner David Ellison offers more, “would suggest more”A variety of perspective“(Ie the material convenient for Trump) on its air. And from the pure blue sky, Leno returned!
Viewers who have suffered through those previous wars late in the evening can easily rest in this regard: CBS does not hire Leno as a replacement for Colbert. Instead, Lenno arose in an interview with David Trulio from Ronald Reagan Presidential Fund and the Institute to complain about how politically unilaterally comedy in the late night. “I love political humor, don’t understand me wrong,” said Leno Trulio. “But this is exactly what happens when people twist too hard … Why shoot only half the audience all the time? You know why not try to get everything. I mean, I like to bring people into a big picture.”
Of course, Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon and Kolbert follow Trump tirelessly – he is in the end, both the one whose extremist fanaticism is a tendency to attack comedians, and the conviction puts him in a special seat class. It’s hard to understand what else they will do.
Not acknowledging anything of this, Leno and Trulio discuss the need for the approach to “both sides” to the late night, as if it was an extension of network news – as if a comedian needs to be given an objective accounting of events of the day. These people have comedy shows late night, not presidential debate. We currently have a Republican White House, Congress, Senate and the Supreme Court. The point is not that having two sides means that both sides have the same power. If Leno wants to see more jokes about Democrats, he must help choose more Democrats.
Also a little to hear the CEO of the Foundation, named after Ronald Reagan Laud Jay Leno, for his pride in political humor. It was the Reagan administration that lost the doctrine of the Federal Committee of Communication in 1987. This long-standing policy has owed television and radio owners regulated by FCC, including ABC, CBS, and NBC-speaking time opposite and different views as a way to preserve media corporations from political discourse monopolization. Republicans claimed that getting rid of the doctrine was expanding free speech – they claimed a sharply unregulated media industry that the free market would dictate, what views and politics are actually provided.
And it happened. After the doctrine disappeared, the media revolution began. With the broadcasters no longer arise according to the standards of justice and the verification of the facts, the Rasha Limbo Career has become possible. It is allowed to interrupt for three hours a day for three hours for a conversation, Liba found huge national following consequences for his agenda, and paved the way for any number of very successful imitators. Radio’s conversations remains a conservative support where few of the liberals.
Current Issue
And yet, despite the fact that it no longer has the doctrine of justice to restrain them, such a right culture of complaint never came into three hereditary networks, especially at 11:30 evening and 12:30 AmWhere the comedy leans, and the anti-tramp is confused by Jay Leno and FCC.
Trump administration, approving the Skydance transaction for Paramount and CBS, insisted that CBS hire an ombudsman to make sure the network offers Maga, convenient political and social views of Maga in its news broadcasts. If Trump sought something like an actual “diversity of perspective”, he could simply return the doctrine of justice to balance the content on the air, although it would destroy conservative radio. Ombudsman on CBS guarantees that a conservative view will be broadcast where they are not successful – broadcasting news outside the Maga Media bubble.
What to say, almost none of this happened Jay Leno. “As a leading Show tonight” said Leno a few years ago“I liked to humiliate and aggravate both sides equally.” Really? Jay Leno – “fair and balanced” comedian? Study University George Meisson 2009 It turned out that of 33,000 jokes that Leno told about politicians during his first run as Show tonightThe presenter, he told 4,468 Bill Clinton jokes and 2999 about George W. Bush. (The spare moments of the studio silence for the fact that the poor assistant in scientific research was forced to go through these 7 467 jokes.) Of course, there is no reason to go after Clinton more than Bush, if he wanted, but there is no reason why Kimmeme, Kolbert and NO should not go for any other. Also, the analysis of electronic tables from 33,000 jokes is not really necessary to find out what Leno was always a comedian of the central management. Like he himself said“People can nominate your policy if they pay attention.”
Leno’s Rights Show regularly headed Letterman in ratings. The liberal slope of the current late night has a lot to do with the deeply unpopular policy of President Trump and viewing the demographic, which remained with Late Night programming on network television. This is not as if the comedy itself becomes more liberal or left. Podkaster Comedy, who helped Trump, choose the slope to the right, and the modern success of Guutfeld’s Guutfeld’s success and Bill Mahera’s continued success is not a healthy opinion that conservative views cannot catch a comedy break.
Even if Kolbert or Kimmel followed the Democrats, would he come as fair and balanced? After viewing Colbert with its great Colbert Report Days, and Kimmeme brought tears on Trump’s re -election news, will you believe that they are also angry with Jeffrois Shumer or Hockey for their liberal excesses? Perhaps they have some reason to prank them, like a basically ineffective Schumer’s confrontation before Trump or Jeffreis refusal just take the Zohran Mamdani mayor in New York, but this material is unlikely to be a sister who wants to see Leno (or Trump).
When Kolbert moved from Central Comedy to CBS in 2015, he tried to reduce his left commitment Colbert Report prudence – this is a step Cleared it so ratings. When he returned to political humor, often aimed at Trump, Kolbert ratings increased, and this led him to the number. In the ideal market of the doctrine after the withdrawal of the ideas that the Regan Revolution gave us, this is exactly what was supposed to happen. And for sure, formed, modern Republicans want to come to late night.

It is also worth noting that the determination of Leno’s control as a right machine for a joke in the late evening is not just a question that advertises the final count of jokes anti-Bush and anti-clinton. Take, for example, a tireless shame at the expense of Monica Levinsky. In his own memory, Gauzi was a voice for a fair game and citizenship. When Leno first started advertising comedy citizenship in Trump’s era, John Oliver threw Mounting your own jokes Levinsky Returning to him because Leno was no longer civil than he was two -party. Leno, of course, was not one, following Levinsky – Maher, the Letterman and Morin Daud, among many others, beat her. The difference is that Leno has a special talent to dress its hard strip in folk style “Didja Hear this?” Water-enlisted banter.
Also, Levinsky was not the only woman at the reception of the end of the conservative jokes who punched conservative strikes: there was a Libek stele. Now this name is largely forgotten but Libek was a 79-year-old woman in the center In the McDonald’s trial. In 1992, Libek received a third -degree burns when McDonald’s hot coffee fell on her knees while she was sitting in the car’s passenger seat. She later confessed that she was fading coffee, but the strong heat made her hospitalized for eight days with burns, which required wide skin transplants. McDonald’s knew more than 700 clients who suffered from such burns from coffee spill. When the company refused to cover its thousands of dollars with medical expenses, it went to court. The judge initially found McDonald’s liability for a symbolic decision of $ 2.9 million (the number of two -day coffee sales for the network), which fell down. A real story, including her hospitalization and what she did not go when it happened, never broke the pop -culture – thanks to the not small part of Leno.
Leno’s instinct was not to go for McDonald for the sale of 190-degree coffee in cheap cups that regularly conquer people. Instead, its beginning was that the mind was stupid Libek wanted McDonald’s to pay her millions for his own lack of common sense. Leno helped turn it into a child poster for frivolous lawsuits and grates. As he The main one night“Now she claims that she broke her nose on the stem in the Sizler, looking at the chicken!” Libek’s lawyer even tried An explanation of the actual case To Leno in the hope that the presenter of the late night can change his jokes to stop reflecting the Libeka as a professional sacrifice by fileing a frivolous lawsuit. Leno was not interested – he found comedic gold and so limited Libek on the status of a national perforator to get it.
If the first comedy reflex is Leno on the side of the fast food mesh over the grandmother, which is not surprising that he is aside with our dictator’s president when he feels that the comics late night for him is too sneaky.
