Heeere’s Jimmy, Officially
But Mr. Leno said in an interview: “The main difference between this and the other time is I’m part of the process. The last time the decision was made without me.

News Desk — New York Times: Here’s Jimmy… in New York City *Updated*
THIS ISN’T just any reporter dropping this, it’s Bill Carter. I’m a huge Jimmy Fallon fan, as you’ve likely noticed. This cannot happen soon enough for me.

SOTU: Obamas Choose Survivors of Gun Massacres, Republicans Choose Chicken Hawk Ted Nugent Who Threatened Obama’s Life
“Obama is feeling his oats,” said Donald A. Baer, a former aide to President Bill Clinton and now the chief executive of the communications firm Burson-Marsteller. “I think he probably believes he was cautious and hemmed in by one thing or another in the first term, and he’s decided he’s going to do more of [...]

Showbiz Beat: Bring on Jimmy Fallon to Replace Jay Leno [Video]
THE FIRST story out on the subject surfaced yesterday. As one of the millions of Jimmy Fallon fans, all I can say is that he’s the obvious choice for “The Tonight Show” post Jay Leno. Fallon is easy on the eyes, hilarious, very mainstream in his comedy and the best thing TV offers after 11:00 [...]
Chris Christie Sings Springsteen with Jimmy Fallon
IT WASN’T AS bad as Bill Clinton in ’88, but it’s clear Gov. Chris Christie’s keynote was so quickly forgotten in the glow of Paul Ryan’s steel that he landed on Late Night to remind people he’s still got it. It’s amazing what one night can do to a politician, but right now, Chris Christie [...]
Romney In Shambles
IT’S THE TWITTER hashtag, #romneyinshambles, and it’s been trending for 24 hours. It’s the biggest legacy from Romney’s foreign policy gaffe tour. Jimmy Fallon, my fave, starts off the National Journal’s round-up of Romney jokes last night. Mentioning a town hall setting that will be part of the presidential campaign, he says one of the [...]
Obama Slow Jams the News with Fallon
Fan of Jimmy Fallon here. There’s a reason Obama has solid likable numbers. Naming “Groundhog Day” as a favorite movie does date him. It also illustrates priorities, because Obama’s a man who could get any film he wanted at the White House from studios. He’d rather play golf or watch Sports Center with Bo, while [...]
Michelle Obama Promotes ‘Let’s Move’
According to ABC News, the official picture above was taken during a taping of “Late Night” with Jimmy Fallon. I’m a big fan, so I simply had to post it. I’m also a huge fan of Mrs. Obama’s “Let’s Move” push, which targets childhood obesity. Health and weight are directly related, with so many things [...]
