Fox affiliates chairman says Conan O'Brien 'doesn't seem to be on the front burner'
Despite recent reports that negotiations to bring Conan O’Brien to Fox were advancing, the network’s affiliates chairman, Brian Brady, tells Broadcast & Cable: “To the best of my knowledge, no pressure has been asserted on any Fox affiliates [by the network]. There’s nothing definitive on Conan right now.” Brady acknowledges that a late-night show hosted by O’Brien will probably be discussed next month as part of the National Association of Broadcasters confab, but that “Conan doesn’t seem to be on the front burner. If it was, I’d be hearing about it.”

Michael Jackson's doctor to face license suspension
Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson’s former doctor, could have his medical license revoked if a petition — filed yesterday in Los Angeles by Jerry Brown on behalf of the California Medical Board — is approved, according to Reuters. In the 12-page filing, Brown states: “[The] Defendant is alleged to have administered a lethal dose of propofol and other powerful drugs to patient M.J., which resulted in the patient’s death. The exercise of such poor professional judgment and placing the life of a patient in jeopardy requires that the [California Medical] Board take measures to protect the public from future harm.” Murray a cardiologist, has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter charges in the pop star’s death. He is free on $75,000 bail and if convicted, faces up to four years in jail.
