I never watch late night tv and leno has sucked for years.
Some reason this story is intriguing. I'm enjoying Leno getting ripped by his peers.
I listened to the the 1st Howard Stern vid. It seems like a lot of people are jealous. So, Leno had great lead ins, that is his benefit. So, he didn't want a co-host back in 1995, I wouldn't either, after a few yrs in. And he's a workaholic, well workaholics don't want anybody touching their shit, it all theirs.
As far as being selfish, a selfish man doesn't do Jay's Garage...he wouldn't share his cars with the world.
And David Letterman would have made a terrible Host for the LA crowd. His very dry and unfunny wit is terrible, and he is ugly and lacks polish, flash and flair. So does Rosie.
