Howard Stern may have accused Jay Leno of stealing material -- again -- but the host of "The Tonight Show" is not rising to the occasion.
Leno is not commenting, his rep told the Daily News, after the radio star slammed him Tuesday on "Piers Morgan Tonight."
"Jay is insane and Jay is a crook," Stern told Morgan. "He steals a tremendous amount of material. He is not fit to scrub Dave Letterman's feet."
The 57-year-old radio star -- who has accused Leno of stealing jokes from him in the past -- claimed that that the U.S. was "filled with morons" and that those who watch Leno "must be in a coma."
A source close to Leno told the Daily News that Stern was using the 60-year-old host to keep himself "relevant."
"It is kind of interesting that the only time Howard Stern gets headlines these days is when he attacks Leno and Oprah," the source said.
The source added that Stern is trying to combat the fact that even when he appears on "The Late Show with David Letterman," Leno beats Letterman in the ratings.
