JOHNNY CARSON | 1925-2005

The King of Late Night is dead. I will be interested to see the reaction from the other late night hosts on Monday. Carson appeared on Letterman's CBS show several times. His photo can be seen hanging on a wall on the set of Conan's show. Meanwhile Leno does everything he can to make people forget Carson ever existed. I wouldn't be surprised if the most heartfelt tribute comes from Letterman -- it's times like this that his instincts as a broadcaster routinely outshine those of his NBC counterpart. Just sayin'.
