Leno's Warning: Late-Night Comedy's Partisan Shift Alienates Half of Its Audience, He Warns

Jay Leno has criticized modern late-night comedy for prioritizing partisan politics and alienating half of its audience, citing his own experience of maintaining a balanced approach during his 20-year tenure as host of 'The Tonight Show'. He attributed this shift to the increasingly polarized nature of American society. As a result, many comedians feel pressured to take sides in order to stay relevant. Leno believes that this trend is detrimental to the industry and should be avoided.
