Yesterday NBC executive Dick Ebersol, well known for his infamous fights with SNL comedians in the 1980s is now jumping in and blaming the network’s troubles not no Jay Leno’s horrible, sloppy attempt at making a podcast but on Conan O’Brien.

According to the New York Times:

Referring to the pointed jokes made this week by Mr. O’Brien and David Letterman of CBS, Mr. Ebersol said it was “chicken-hearted and gutless to blame a guy you couldn’t beat in the ratings… what this is really all about is an astounding failure by Conan.”

Here’s what someone wrote on the TV guide blog:

Just like Republicans, bank execs, and politicians, NBC execs don’t hesitate for a second to blame their abject failure on everyone and anyone that they can. Trouble is, we’ve all turned savvy.

A lot of people have been calling for NBC to fire the executives that made these terrible descisions and Jay Leno and allow Conan O’Brien to host the Tonight Show. How do you think this is going to play out? I’m just wondering why Conan doesn’t just buy a cable channel and move his talk show there. All these guys have buckets of money.
