No one is more uniquely suited to document television's latest late- night travesty than veteran media reporter and bestselling author, Bill
Carter. NBC's CEO, Jeff Zucker, had it all worked out when he moved Jay
Leno from behind the desk at The Tonight Show, and handed the
reins over to Conan O'Brien. But as everyone knows, his decision was a
spectacular failure. Ratings plummeted, affiliates were enraged-and
when Zucker tried to put everything back the way it was, that plan
backfired as well.
In candid detail, Carter charts the vortex that sucked in-not just
Leno and O'Brien-but also Letterman, Stewart, Fallon, Kimmel, and
Ferguson as frantic agents and network executives tried to manage a
tectonic shift in television's most beloved institution.
