AP is reporting the WHDH, NBC’s Boston affiliate, announced that they won’t be carrying the new 10 PM Jay Leno show, opting instead to carry a local newscast.

NBC said, “I don’t think so.” They also threatened to strip them of their affiliation.

Leno grew up in Andover, MA, about a half-hour north west of Boston.
