Norm has always been a friend to the show, he always does well when he comes on and he's revered Conan calling him the best currently on television. It's likely both men came together and agreed on this solution for the good of the audience. But as the audience we should make our voice heard and let them know that we do want Norm on. He's handled himself with tact on the View and I personally think the minds of Norm and Conan can discuss what's going on in a constructive way, and god willing maybe even make us laugh while they do it. This petition isn't just about Norm's appearance on Conan, it's a petition against character assassination and online witchhunts. If the View can have such a mature discussion on Comedy, then so should Conan. This is what talk shows used to be for, instead of just rampant promotion.
