The story about Brian Williams admitting that he "misremembered" whether or not he was in a chopper hit by a grenade in Iraq in 2003 has taken on a life of its own in recent days, hasn't it?

Fallon's ratings were really high for his first few nights at the helm of "The Tonight Show," and then they got better. Not even a year into his new gig and his ratings are better than Leno's were even in his much-hyped final weeks on NBC.So what is the secret to Fallon's groundbreaking success?
