Do you remember where you were on the afternoon of September 15, 2016?

(Not to mention, it was the catalyst that gave Stephen ColbertsLate Showconsistently better ratingsever since.)
It was definitely a down time, Fallon said in anew interviewwithTHR.And its tough for morale.
He said the rest through tears:
You go, Alright, we get it.
You made me feel bad.
Do you want to push me more?
What do you want me to do?
You want me to kill myself?
What would make you happy?
Fallon adds, Im sorry.
I dont want to make anyone angry I never do and I never will.
Its all in the fun of the show.
I made a mistake.
Im sorry if I made anyone mad.
And, looking back, I would do it differently.
Fallon insists, though, that the war for late-night dominance doesnt interest him.
The ratings never bothered me, Fallon said.
I dont really care about the ratings.
Thats someone elses job at NBC.
Well, someone else at NBCmight not be too happy, then.
