I can't lay that on Conan, though. Many local NBC affiliates took a big ratings hit with their local news broadcasts b/c of people bailing on Leno's show, so it's not unreasonable to say Conan felt the damage too...

Leno bombed in prime time but it was always a ratings pit.

He gets some blame sure but lead in or not, Conan tanked. When you lose half the audience it's on you. Leno went back to 11:30 even with all the negative press and then was #1 again.

Conan had difficult circumstances. He got screwed but the lead in card doesn't fly. jay is his scapegoat so he doesn't have to admit he bombed. It's got to hurt and be publicly humiliating but if you're going to push out a guy on top in the ratings expect pressure.
