Tom Denari says it's not Leno's soft lead-in that turned viewers off.

In ye olden days, AP or UPI newswire teletypes would spit out a constant stream of paper in newsrooms. Editors or reporters would have to periodically use rulers to tear apart the continuous spool of paper into individual stories. These stories would be sorted into baskets or hooks on the wall. This was called "stripping the wire". In the same way, this blog will attempt to sort through relevant content on the internet to identify and "strip out" items of interest for my students.

It's ridiculous that NBC blames Leno for their low local news ratings. People just aren't watching local news anymore. We are at a point in time where you can get news from the internet or sent straight to your phone. News can be boring and irrelevant so people just choose not to tune in.

I don't think they should blame Leno for their poor news rating...they are responsible for that maybe they need a new director or producer to update their show.

Clearly i do not think it is Leno's fault for the low local news ratings. NBC needs to come up with different strategies to get the public to watch.
