I just read that Conan O’Brien opened a Twitter account today… the fever is going strong! I just followed him and noticed that already over 164,000 are following his one tweet of the day… something about how he interviewed a squirrel in his backyard. Clearly, this is a media personality that has impact.
That whole debacle with the Tonight Show was unbelievable from a media perspective. Yes, we know it’s all about ratings for stations. That’s why it is so sad.
