In Case You Missed It….

It's really not that shocking that David Letterman had affairs with his staff. Everyone know that he was a womanizer back in the day.

Dave's a grown man. He did not have to explain to anyone. Sex happens. His office could be any office USA. As long as it's between two consenting adults - it's no one else's business.

Saw it lats night shit for brains….now how about explaining your video from last night rummy.

Why the fuck is the crowd laughing at his admission that he's been screwing his staff?I'll bet the suits at CBS also found this funny!Karma just took a huge dump on his head!

At least Bristol Palin had her baby. I bet Letterman made his ho's have abortions. HA HA David. That's what you get for making fun of a minor. Now, all of your dirty laundry is out just like Bristol's is. Your "staff" should file sexual harrassment charges against you and you should lose your show.

Still Team Dave !!!!!!!!!

so the audiences reactions were really strange, but whatever.. ive been at a taping of jay leno and somehow they get you to laugh at everything. But, what is really disturbing to me is the way letterman is acting about the whole thing. hes like yea i had sex with women big deal. um the big deal is 1. YOU WERE IN A COMMITTED RELATIONSHIP ASSHOLE. he has said many times that the woman he recently married was his girlfriend for 27 years. 2. It is not okay to have sexual relationships with people who work for you. If not disclosed, it is usually illegal. I never liked david letterman (just never thought he was funny), but now i am really disgusted by him.
ps: turtlegirl, you are just ignorant.

I feel sorry for his wife god forbid if he cheated on her this could have been years and years ago and not like something that happened now he has a 5 yr old kid so hopefully everything is ok at home in that case I still

Man…this is not funny…I think people thought he was kidding.
You could see in his face that he was being serious.
Well…it is nice that he admits it.

Why the FUCK are all these people in the audience clapping and cheering and laughing??? I don't see what's so funny about a man cheating on his wife and risking destroying his young child's family!!!!!!!!!! DISGUSTING!

Who but Letterman could make extortion funny?

He is brilliant and hilarious and a lot of other celebrities and politicos would be wise to take a cue from him.

Letterman did not confess to cheating on anyone. While it is an implied possibility, passing that sort of judgement is at best, premature. Not only could it have happened prior to marriage, but he could be in an open marriage. Comparisons to Palins make me laugh, ha ha ha ha ha.

Re: Idiot America – Well, come on now, we're not all idiots are we? I agree with you. He is a grown man and had sexual relationships with women, not donkeys for God's sake and was between him and the women in his life. Who knows when it was? What he did was legal. Blackmail is not. That guy sure was an idiot to mess with DL!

SHOCKING HOW HE IS SO BLASE ABOUT SCREWING HIS STAFF. HIS STAFF. It's no different than a harem. It's a tacit part of the job. Um…you work for Dave? Wear something sexy. If you're lucking he'll think you're "special" and "pick you". VOMITOUS. I thought workplace politics had changed since the 50s? As for cheating on his woman..THAT'S between him and his woman…but screwing his staff…EXCUSE ME? And he's so nonchalent about it all "Yeah I screwed my staff..so what?"

Re: LizardKinG – 5 LOL! Seriously!

Oh my it's awkward that the audience keeps laughing….it's not a funny story.

HE ROCKS

Way to tell the world you love your wife who was your girlfriend of 20 something years.

I feel so bad for his wife.

Just because 2 people are consenting don't mean shit. Just because you are grown adult don't mean shit too. You can still be full of shit.

We have no idea when he had sexual relationships with staff members and we don't know anything about his relationship. Dontcha think over all those years with a commitment-phobe that they were sometimes separated and seeing other people?
Brilliant and charming to be able to tell this story and keep the audience engaged. Of the hundreds of employees over all these yrs don't you think many were colleagues of equal status, NOT teenaged interns.

wgas…..scumbag. best not to point the finger before you look at yourself.

I love you David Letterman!!

I'd like to see Leno and Conan tonight, whether they take the high road and don't mention it or whether they do their jog as "comedians" and comment on topical events in a funny way (or as close as Jay can get). Leno has made much of Jay at 10 in his top 10, so who knows. The picture of Bill Clinton and Dave during a recent show may make for a great sight gag/joke. I think Dave "broke" the story they way he did in an attempt to diffuse some of the future comments/jokes/stories etc.

Ugh….read before post…..JOB as comedians. and DAVE is making much of Leno at 10pm in his top ten.

Now we probably know the reason why he didn't get married for so long… problems with monogamy. Of course, that's no one's business except his and his now wife. My personal philosophy is that until someone is married they are still free to do whatever they want with who ever they want. It may not be nice but it is more honest. I'm sure his wife knows about his wandering ways and she's choosen to stay with him for 27 year, have a child with him and ultimately marry him. If it works for them it's no one else's business. As for blackmail, I'm glad he went to the police no matter what it might cost him personally. His actions in this instance show integrity and a respect for the law. Since no woman has ever filed a sexual harrassement suit vs. him before I think it's safe to say they were all consentual relationships. Unfortunately, these women are also victims in this blackmain scheme and I hope the courts take their privacy into account as the legal case goes forward.

weird…

Re: Noxx – I completely agree. I think he handled the whole thing with dignity, class and he's got major balls. Good on Dave!

This was hard for him…I feel like I lost David through his cheating…I've lost respect.

I thought he handled the matter well. He is a grown man and makes his own choices. The matter is really between him and his wife. So many people shouldn't people shouldn't be so quick to judge or cast stones. He didn't rape the women, he had consensual sex. It happens in offices everywhere, everyday, every hour folks. I'm not saying he was right for cheating on his wife… for all we know they could have an open relationship and she may have her friends to meet up with as well. I think he was right to address it to his fans/audiences well before the National Enquirer got a hold of it. I'm sure they are pissed they weren't in on the scoop. For all of those who don't seem to understand…the clap at the end was a show of support for Dave. For those who don't seem understand why he was using some funny content. He was probably nervous and embarrased. Some people are like that, it is called a defense mechanism. I'm like that when i'm nervous and have laughed at the worst times. But Dave was clearly being serious. Honestly, some of the comments on here are ridiculous and stupid. Learn to read body language and some of you learn to not be so cut throat. Were all sinners at some point in our life.

I like David Letterman but what he did really sucks! He's married for goodness sake! He's old ugh. hahaha I feel bad for his poor wife. I do hope the guy who was black mailing Letterman goes down no one should be done like that. At least he's honest. That' something I guess.

Re: sarah.love – i believe your the ignorant one… people screwing is private, whether they are married or not.. i think it is between him and his spouse… ever heard …mindya biznezz? u should do some research.. what century are we in again? we can do wtv da **** we want..go bak in tyme biotch

I like the way he was open about it…but again he cheated, which is never good. tbh I probably would have paid the £2 million! he must be rolling in it, now his wife must be pissed!!

what sick piece of shit…he didn't even apologize to the women he fucked…which he should've done while he was fucking them…his breath cud kill a walrus

All of the laughing made me uncomfortable. He should have said something like "No, this is serious" or something.

WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE CLAPPING, CHEERING AND LAUGHING??!!!!
ARE THEY THIS DUMB?! what the fuck please. it's outrageous how people can be stupid, wow.

ewwwwwwwwwwwww….who will wanna have sex with this old hag. disgusting!!!!!! why does he take long to confess!? effin douche

I hope his sex partners get paid well for this. Donna

at the 1:53 mark, you hear a cameraman or producer say "Oh no" just as Lettermans about to start talking about being blackmailed

Re: zeynoo – No, that's Paul from the band. He always joins in.
