I really do not get how it takes so many employees and writers to come up with such a lame show.
I haven’t watch that show in decades for obvious reasons.
Here Verizon FIOS has added a new conservative channel called One America News Network OAN I tune into from time to time as an alternative to FNC.
It looks like it has a small fraction of the budget that FNC has.
I like any network that goes after Obama.
Dick Cavett made the rounds when Carson past away. One of his stories was that he was writing for Carson, and having an off day, he came up with some pretty lame jokes.
Carson stopped by the office, and subtly let Cavett know that the jokes stank, and he expected better of Cavett.
Maybe Letterman's crew has a lot of off days, especially since they're all leftists, and are loathed to shoot any of the fish in the liberal barrel. That doesn't leave much of the social/cultural/political pie left as grist for the comedy neurons to spark with.
So you need a big pool of writers to find one that can write on any given day.
