When I wrote a blog for NBC Sports a few years ago, the corporate toadies in New York banned any of us from writing about Conan O’Brien, who was just starting his new show on TBS. Couldn’t mention him. It was of course a sore subject for the Evil Empire, who had booted O’Brien in a Jay Leno coup — one of the slimiest moves in media entertainment history.
Thank God that’s over, because O’Brien is one of the best late night hosts ever. Here’s some evidence, as O’Brien discusses Chris Christie’s hostage-face situation during the Donald Trump endorsement press conference on Super Tuesday.
