First Ellen, Now Tool, um, Carson

Late night talk show host Carson Daly will join comedienne and fellow talk show host Ellen DeGeneres in crossing the Writers Guild of America picket line as he begins to start taping new episodes of his lame-ass gabfest for the Aberzombie + Bitch crowd this week.

Spokespeople for Carson--a non-member of the WGA, unlike DeGeneres--did not disclose if the new shows will start airing next Monday or Tuesday or who his guests will be. The WGA has yet to comment on the matter.
