Which host had hosting years 1982-1993?

• A. Conan O'Brien
• B. Jimmy Fallon
• C. Seth Meyers
• D. David Letterman

Answer: (D)

The main idea is identifying who was hosting late-night during the entire span of 1982 to 1993. David Letterman started hosting NBC's Late Night in 1982 and stayed in that role until 1993, when he moved to CBS to launch The Late Show. That means his hosting years cover the full period from 1982 through 1993. Conan O'Brien began hosting Late Night in 1993 and continued past 1993, so his tenure doesn’t include the entire early part. Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers started hosting decades later, not in the 1980s. So the host whose years span 1982-1993 is David Letterman.
