Why Isn’t Tina Fey The Next Tonight Show Host?

Is it possible that Jay Leno is going to finally be replaced as the Tonight Show host and NBC brass isn’t going to offer the slot to Tina Fey? She’d be brilliant and the job would allow her to continue writing whatever she wants. Sure, she could say “no,” but she has the time with 30 Rock ending, and I believe she’s still under a multi-year deal with the network. Considering NBC is now losing in the sweeps to Univision, the execs sure could use all the good publicity they would garner from making what’s a slam-dunk appointment.
