Conan O'Brien has made peace with a man who heckled him not from the crowd but the courts.
SAN DIEGO — Conan O'Brien has made peace with a man who heckled him not from the crowd but the courts.
Attorneys for both sides filed documents in San Diego federal court announcing a deal had been reached about three weeks before a trial that would have seen O'Brien, his sidekick Andy Richter and other famous names called to the stand. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. "Short of murder, stealing material is the worst thing any comic can be accused of," O'Brien writes."Had I, for one second, thought that any of my writers took material from someone else I would have fired that writer immediately, personally apologized, and made financial reparations.""As a professional comedy writer, all I want to do is make people laugh and stand up for the things I believe in," Kaseberg said.
"At the same time," O'Brien writes,"that joke was being written by literally 34 other people on Twitter, and one of those people decided he had been robbed."
