Everyone knows by now that Conan O’Brien’s reign as the Tonight Show host will be over soon and Jay Leno will be taking over the position he once held.  NBC gave O’Brien and his staff a $45 million payout.   O’Brien’s last airdate on the Tonight show will be this Friday and Leno will return to the Tonight Show March 1^st. 

Although it seems that O’Brien was seriously slighted, there are other parties that are very interested in him hosting a show.  FOX already seems interested in having Conan O’Brien come over to their network.    

The whole situated does seem to stink for Conan.  At one time he was promised the position as host of the Tonight Show and now his job is being taken back.   Hopefully he find a great job another network and show NBC that they made a huge mistake in letting him leave.

It is big news that the media giant, Oprah, is leaving her show in 2011.  It is expected that she will be appearing on her new cable television network.   OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network) will premiere in January 2011 and is a partnership with the Discovery Communications.

 After all the success she has had it is no wonder she want to make a change after over 20 years.  As a billionaire, she is financially secure enough make some career moves. There are some average men and women that wish they had a few thousand dollars to make a change in their lives.     Oprah is doing what a lot of people wish that they could do; make a career change without have to worry about how the bills are going to be paid.

Robin Givens wished that Oprah had said more when Mike Tyson stalked about his abuse of Givens during their marriage.   During his interview Tyson said that one of the best punches he threw was at Givens and at that moment Givens wished that Oprah had interjected and said it was wrong.  Oprah apologized to Givens and other abused women and said that she regretted not saying more and letting Tyson know that he was wrong.   Givens was on the Oprah show after the interview and accepted Oprah’s apology.

As a reporter or interviewer Oprah did do her job.  She is there to ask questions and get answers without pushing across her personal beliefs.  However, over the years the Oprah Winfrey show has been a place that she has expressed her opinions and beliefs so it may see out of character for many that she did not let Mike Tyson know that he was out of line.
