CBS airbrushes Letterman's Willow Palin rape joke out of transcript

Interesting -- the censors at CBS airbrushed Letterman's rape joke out of the transcript it sent to the media:

The remark was aired live, but CBS removed it from the transcript it makes available to media, including the New York Times, which publishes Letterman’s opening monologue on its blog site.

How about air-brushing David Letterman out of the television schedule?

Explains a lot, actually, as I have had people tell me Letterman said nothing about Willow.

Will CBS air-brush his apology for something he [never] said?

Just CBS doing what CBS does best..I’m not surprised by this at all. Just another liberal network doing whatever necessary to protect one of their own

The coverup by CBS execs is evidence of their responsibility in the matter.

Letterman is a professional, he had to recognize possible trouble with the “joke”, and maybe just got it cleared in advance from bosses.
