Several former staff members spoke to Rolling Stone about what they described as a toxic work environment.

Jimmy Fallon apologized to “Tonight Show” staffers Thursday afternoon following a Rolling Stone report about his behavior at NBC’s venerable late-night program over the years.
Still, the Rolling Stone tales, many believed to have taken place during an earlier era of the program, raised eyebrows. “Nobody told Jimmy, ‘No.’ Everybody walked on eggshells, especially showrunners,” a former employee told the magazine. “You never knew which Jimmy we were going to get and when he was going to throw a hissy fit. Look how many showrunners went so quickly. We know they didn’t last long.
“It was like, if Jimmy is in a bad mood, everyone’s day is fucked,” one former employee said. “People wouldn’t joke around in the office, and they wouldn’t stand around and talk to each other. It was very much like, focus on whatever it is that you have to do because Jimmy’s in a bad mood, and if he sees that, he might fly off.”
Fallon’s “Tonight Show” is currently on hiatus due to the strikes by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA unions representing writers and actors.
