Why is David Letterman Still on TV?

Tiger Woods life has changed dramatically ever since that fateful night at the neighbor's tree. He's stepped aside from the PGA Tour (for the moment) and his sponsors have all either dropped him or rearranged his "duties." We probably won't hear directly from Tiger again for some time. His own personal domestic issues have ruined his career and killed his reputation.

Why did David Letterman get a pass?

I would argue that Mr. Letterman's actions were a lot worse considering the circumstances. He abused his position of power over young, ambitious females to gain control over them in a sexual manner. There is something almost criminal about that. It's pretty disgusting when you think about it but we all know Dave is a disgusting man. His constant sexist insults and derogatory diatribe, disguised as "comedy," directed at Sarah Palin and her family should be a case study in morbid psychosis. I'm not sure what the proper term to diagnose someone showing those attributes is but it certainly isn't 'sanity.'

I believe CBS gave David Letterman a pass because A.) He is an outspoken liberal and B.) They view him as one of their own. Sure he's not a nightly news anchor but he's one of them just the same. CBS should have terminated Dave immediately upon the revelation that he was taking advantage of their employees (and according to some, interns as well). Even the company I work for has fired people for conducting affairs in the office. There should be an ethical standard in any work environment, to keep the integrity of a business. When marriages are being torn to pieces and the work flow is negatively affected, it is incumbent on the company heads to maintain such standards.

What about Letterman's sponsors?

I think because most people who watch late night television do not have real jobs because their IQs are too low for them to hold one.

And he’s slamming Tiger on his show. What about a “Top Ten David Letterman Come-on Lines?”

One could ask why Katie Couric is still on the air. Or drooling Chris Matthews. Or Georgie Girl at ABC. The answer is these people are retarded obsolete talking heads.

We live in a country shaped by democrats.

Humping the staff while impugning the character of others every night is not hypocrisy.

Because Letterman can still be used as a megaphone for the left every night.

If Dave didn't get the boot for being obnoxious and unfunny, he won't get it for having sex slaves in his secret room.

If the network thought it could make more money with something else in his slot he'd be gone, but most people are half asleep by then and expect to be snoring sometime in the middle.
