The striking writers union told member Jay Leno on Thursday that he violated its rules by penning and delivering punch lines in his first “Tonight” show monologue in two months on NBC the night before.  Leno said he wrote his own jokes and that he didn’t turn to “outside guys.” “I’m doing what I did the day I started,” he said. “I write jokes and wake my wife up in the middle of the night and say, `Honey, is this funny?’ So if this monologue doesn’t work it’s my wife’s fault.” He maintained: “We are following the guild thing. We can write for ourselves.”

 Are you ready for my prediction? The media (me, everyone else) is going to eat Jay Leno alive. This arrogant giant melon head thinks he is above the strike?! They are cancelling award shows, tv series, insane amounts of lives are affected.  But he can do whatever he wants?!  Jay is supposed to be on his way out anyway, Conan O’Brien has an agreement to take over the Tonite Show, but Jay has been resistant to leave (hmm this sounds familiar…that was what Jay did to Johhnny Carson).  Jay will be murdered in the press and Conan will gladly step in. Both of the late night hosts supported, both emotionally and financially, their writers during the last two months which is admirable, but this is going to become a huge volcano eruption. Conan himself crossed the line too, but it seems Jay is going to take all the heat. I personally hate Jay Leno. He has stolen so much Howard Stern material and tries to be this nice guy but he is a heartless robot on the inside.
