Tax break helps NYC lure 'The Tonight Show' home

FILE- In this Feb. 18, 2014 file photo released by NBC, host Jimmy Fallon is seated at his desk during "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," in New York. Fallon, a New Yorker who wanted the excitement of the nation’s largest city to permeate his show, brought “The Tonight Show” back to New York after 40 years on the West Coast. Producing the show in New York also nets NBC a 30 percent tax credit that can save the network more than $20 million a year. (AP Photo/NBC, Lloyd Bishop, File) NEW YORK (AP) — "The Tonight Show" made its return to New York City with a splashy opening sequence showcasing Grand Central Terminal, the Chrysler Building, Lincoln Center and Jimmy Fallon's glamorous new studio at Rockefeller Center — a fitting tribute to the place that helped foot the bill.
