| | Carson Daly Seeking Scabs - November 27, 2007 |
 | | NOVEMBER 27--NBC late night host Carson Daly, who today announced that he is returning to the air in the face of the ongoing writers strike, wants his friends and family to help with his scab efforts. |
 | | In an e-mail, Daly asked a small group of contacts to call in "suggested jokes" to a telephone hotline, noting that he would "play some, most, or all of your jokes on the air." The bit, Daly stressed, was not meant to "make fun" of his striking writers. |
 | | Scott London, a Daly pal who got the e-mail, told TSG that he would gladly submit a joke to the hotline, adding that the performer's gambit was not a bid to draft friends into a strikebreaking effort. |
