As much as I want to not like him for all this, I doubt that 100% of this was his decision. If he could have left quietly and leave Conan in place, he probably would have. But NBC executives know that Leno is a money maker at the 11:30 time slot and wanted to bank on him again so they put out an offer he couldn't refuse. So the real enemy here are NBC top dogs that only have $$$ on their brains and not the interest of their hosts or their viewers.
At least Conan did the right thing and did not request Late Night back, he's leaving it with Jimmy Fallon.
