And they were provoked by a pretty hilarious joke!
Conan O’Brien has explained several times recently about how he isn’t allowed to badmouth NBC, but he said in his monologue on The Tonight Show last night:
“Nobody said anything about speaking in Spanish. NBC esta manejado por hijos de cabras imbeciles que comen dinero y evacuan problemas.“
The Spanish translates to “NBC is run by brainless sons of goats who eat money and crap trouble.”
LOLs!
O’Brien is expecting some pretty big guests as he goes out with a bang this coming Friday. Adam Sandler, Robin Williams and Barry Manilow are stopping by along with Will Ferrell, Conando’s first guest when he started hosting The Tonight Show.
NBC has not been amused with his LOLgasmic antics and released the following statement to news outlets:
“It was Conan’s decision to leave NBC that resulted in nearly 200 of his staffers being out of work. We have already agreed to pay millions of dollars to compensate every one of them. This latest posturing is nothing more than a PR ploy.”
Whatever it is, we LOVE it! Team CoCo!
