Rumor has it that Jay Leno could be exiting the "Tonight Show" and that Jimmy Fallon will take his place. Meanwhile, according to the Post, Stern is being “groomed” by NBC to take over Fallon’s spot.

Beth told “Extra,” “I always thought Howard and late night TV would be a perfect fit. But, then again, I think everything Howard does is perfect.”

She added, “I'm personally not looking for him to take on yet another job.  With his ‘America’s Got Talent’ schedule and his morning radio show, I need more Howard at home!”

Headline translation: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that he'll be considered for this gig, so the cover story is that I wuv him so much that I must have him home" (as if she's ever home in the evenings).

This is just a phony reaction to the fake story that Howard's agent and Linda Stasi planted in the NY Post, wherein Beth _herself_ is quoted as the only source. A laughable, yet sad, attempt at promoting the irrelevant Stern.

Stern is being groomed by his imaginary friends. No one wants to see the hypocrite and his bent-legged moron anywhere near a late night show.

why doesn't he pay attention to his family and layoff the hollywood pipe dream.

Try finding a nice husband for just one of your daughters

He doesn't do everything perfect. He has admitted that he does not like to perform ***********. So why don't you just shut your lying trap of a horsemouth

Beth needs Howard home more? The guy works 12 hours on radio at most per week and Beth is often seen trotting around town without Howard at many movie premieres and red carpet events.

This story about Howard taking over for Jimmy Fallon sounds like it's PR by Stern's agent - Howard is close to 60 and the AGT ratings slide last year can't inspire confidence that he'll bring lots of fans to the table.

Yeah right. You can't wait til Howard's out of the house. More jobs for Howard means bigger designer bags for Beth.
