Couldn't have happened to a more twisted Perv. No one seems to know how many "staff" (aside from Dave) were involved, but I keep hearing "had sex with SEVERAL staffers)...don't you get fired for that?

I don’t think any less of Letterman personally over his confession, mainly because I couldn’t think less of Letterman.

If any of those late night “comedians” need help writing any jokes about Letterman I’m sure Sarah Palin might be able to lend a hand.

I’m glad Conan got a promotion. Don’t agree with his politics, but glad he got the promotion.

I don’t think David Letterman is a CBS employee. I think CBS has a contract with Letterman’s production company Worldwide Pants. So the Letterman staffers are employees of Worldwide Pants, not CBS.

I always thought this was a classic case of sexual harassment. Why is Dave getting a pass? Why aren't the feminists all over this. In the military he'd be administratively discharged and in private industry he'd be fired.

They said that “Speedy” Letterman got his nickname from growing up near the Indianapolis Speedway, but actually it came from having sex during the commercial break.

The more I avoid watching television because of this sort of nonsense, I'm reminded of the movie, Network!. It's all done for ratings. What other reason is there for Letterman to have publicly blabbed an issue that should be intensely private?

"had sex with SEVERAL staffers)...don't you get fired for that?"

As we know, all companies have established sexual harassment policies. All employees and management are expected to follow the policies, and those who don't can find themselves the target of huge lawsuits and termination from employment.

Some of the things that come out of these lawsuits are allegations that a person submitted because of fear of loss of employment, or hoped to get a promotion. Other allegations have been made that people were NOT promoted because they refused to submit to the harassment. Then there is the possibility that the spouse of someone who engages in workplace sexual activities might sue for alienation of affection or might engage in a violent confrontation with someone at the workplace. The downside to sexual harassment, either as a willing or unwilling participant can be explosive.

If executives at CBS knew what was going on, but did nothing, they are in the chain of command which often gets sued when things blow up. If they didn't know, but have now been made aware of what was going on, they are obligated to enforce the policies of their own company.

All very sticky isn't it?

Dave is not a CBS employee. He and his staffers work are employed by Worldwide Pants, not CBS.

While it’s true, Bubba did not get fired, he DID lose his license to practice and was impeached...in other words, there was SOME retribution...Letterman appears to be walking away from this.

CBS must be fun place to work. Stars sleeping with staff, managers black-mailing their co-workers, Ownership trying to sweep it under the rug.

These perverted, back-stabbing elites are like the characters from “I, Claudius.”

Why would anyone trust anything coming out of CBS?

Letterman is your typical deprave liberal as his behavior shows, he is a sinner who needs salvation by Jesus Christ lest he die and be judged guilty without the intercession of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour and be turned in to the lake of fire the Bible warns of.
Dave is a mocker of God and Christ as all liberal secular humanists are and will suffer the second death of the godless unless he repents of his sins and believes how that Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose again the third day unto everlasting life as the PROPHET and PRIEST and KING of all the earth ready to be revealed at the end of this grace age.
