As I assume there are factions within NR who are always looking for the first excuse to fire me (unique visitors are down! Initiate Operation “Defenestrate Goldberg”!), I just want to be on record that I will take Conan O’Brien’s deal. For 45 million dollars I will leave gracefully and never say a bad word about NR. Nor will anyone on my staff — Cosmo, the Couch, et al.

I just wanted to throw that out there.
