Stern's beef with Leno
is just sad now.
Heard he was ranting about Jay on Letterman recently.
Yes, Howard says "I know I bring this up everytime I come on, Dave..." and proceeds to knock Jay all over again with his same old "he stole the TTS from you" line. How could Jay steal a show that Dave didn't own to begin with? NBC was telling both guys that they the short list to replace Johnny. The network suits, however, signed a contract with Jay when it looked like he was about to go to CBS (ironically, this is what Dave ended up doing). It's also close to the same thing that happened when NBC promised Conan "The Tonight Show" at Jay's expense because they were about to lose O'Brien to FOX. Does Howard think Conan was bad to accept the show under those terms? Surrre never sounded like it. But what Jay did, however, is criminal. His charges are just double standards and nonsense.
But what Howard couldn't accept the other night was that Dave and Jay are apparently in communication again, and he doesn't want to see them end their feud. He says to Dave, "I feel like I'm in the jungles of Vietnam still fighting for you". Someone needs to tell Howard that Vietnam was a nasty, pointless mistake, too. Guess he just wants to keep it going because it's good for business as his fans seem to like hearing him spew his bile at Jay.
NBC was telling both guys that
It was more than that. NBC agreed to pay Letterman 1 million if he didn't get the show.
Howard feels Jay stole from him. He'll never forgive/forget that.
Kisskiss, Bangbang share

Yes, that was Dave's deal, and (according to "The Late Shift") he admitted he was a sucker when he settled in negotiations for such a tiny penalty. Conan at least made sure that he would get substantially more if NBC went back on their deal with him.

He also says everyone from Jamaica is a crook and thinks it's okay to refer to a mentally challenged girl as Wendy the retard. Remember once Geraldo asking him if he truly believed everything he said, and Howard claimed he did. If that's the case then I think Howard's the last person to be judging anyone else's morals.

Dave and Howard both suck. Leno rules!
shareHoward's just a blabber mouth who gives his fans what they want: hostility masked as entertainment. Dave at least seems to be coming around by communicating now with Jay. Maybe that therapy he told Oprah he was seeking is paying off, eh? I wouldn't be surprised if Dave had Jay on "The Late Show" some time as a guest. Maybe even the first night Fallon hosts "The Tonight Show; he tried to do that when Conan was taking over. We'll see.
shareHoward smells.
