Leno Declares Himself Better Comedian Than Letterman

The endless battle that is late night continued this week during the New York Post's interview with Jay Leno. Differentiating himself from the Late Show host, Leno said that he considers himself to be a comedian first while Letterman's "strength was always in broadcasting; he wasn't quite as good in nightclubs." Whether or not Leno's inner comedian will help him attain ratings gold for NBC will be determined September 14. [New York Post]
