Conan O'Brien will 'respect the moment' as Oscars host amid L.A. fires
Briefly

The upcoming Oscars, hosted by Conan O'Brien, will adopt a tone of sensitivity due to the recent Palisades and Eaton fires in Southern California. O'Brien emphasized the commitment to create an appropriate ceremony respecting the current situation, as many people were displaced. He mentioned the need for flexibility in scripting, stating that plans will evolve as the date approaches. Despite facing personal impacts from the fires, O'Brien aims to provide a night that brings happiness amid ongoing challenges.
We're all, all taking this assignment very, very seriously... It's an ever-evolving situation that we're in.
They understand the situation. They understand what's happening... that it's the right show for that night.
Let's think of lots of different ideas, lots of different approaches—and... try to respect the moment.
I can read a room…and, try to respect the moment and try to do my job, which is to meet the moment, be appropriate.
