Conan O’Brien is unequivocally the person I strive to be like the most. This is a great read.
At noon, as the statement hit the official release time, Rick Rosen called Jeff Zucker. “I just want to let you know Conan’s releasing a statement now, and we believe you are in breach of your contract.”
Zucker interrupted. “What does he want?”
“What he wants is The Tonight Show at 11:30.”
“Well, that’s not fucking going to happen,” Zucker said. “So what does he really want? Money? He wants money.”
The conversation got nowhere.
