Jay Leno is currently going viral on social media for his take on overly political late night hosts like Stephen Colbert. The late night talk show legend appeared on a sit down talk with the Regan Foundation and discussed many things, including the state of late night. Leno’s core point is that people simply want to be entertained when they watch a show based on comedy. When the audience is not entertained, or even worse, alienated, the show will not perform well. In days past, late night was about winding down from a long day or week of work with jokes and laughs from relatable people. Nowadays, that has shifted with a focus on political content that attacks one side of the aisle while protecting the other side.
