It's a very flawed account. Where Jimmie says he was in the room when
something happened, I wouldn't dispute. There is enough evidence about
pretty much everything else to call it into doubt. Dave's daytime show was
on NBC, not CBS, and after it got cancelled NBC gave him a development deal
to keep him while they worked on finding something that could work. When
Joan Rivers went to FOX, Carson found out when the FOX press conference
aired. Edgar and Joan aggressively went after people on his staff to bring
them on to the new show. In the recent Garry Shandling doc they said that
NBC approached Shandling and Leno to become permanent guest host after
Rivers left. Shandling bowed out over the pressure of needing to do
material every day.
