David Letterman slams ABC for putting Jimmy Kimmel on pause over Charlie Kirk comments
NY Post ^ | 9/18/25 | Connor Surmonte

“This is misery,” Letterman, 78, said during a panel at the annual event, per Variety. “I feel bad about this.”

“We see where this is all going, correct?” he continued. “It’s managed media. And it’s no good. It’s silly. It’s ridiculous. And you can’t go around firing somebody because you’re fearful or trying to suck up to an authoritarian criminal administration in the Oval Office. That’s just not how this works.”

“In the world of somebody who is an authoritarian, maybe a dictatorship, sooner or later, everyone is going to be touched,” Letterman added.

Funny, a few years back Roseann Barr (not that I’m any great fan of hers) made a Twitter post insulting Valerie Jarrett. This was NOT a broadcast on a national network like Kimmel, just a tweet. She got fired by the very same network that fired Kimmel. Anyone recall what Letterman had to say in defense of her “free speech”?

Rhetorical, of course, since he had absolutely nothing to say about that.

Is this the same guy that had a mattress installed backstage to bang staffers?

Sorry, can’t hear you, mumbler.

Letterman should have been axxed years ago for suggesting on his Late Night show that pro-life VP candidate Sarah Palin’s 13 yr old daughter be raped because her older sister Bristol became pregnant out of wedlock and chose to keep the baby.

Quite a joke eh?

Remember that! The derision the left had for Bristol and her family “ morals” ?

Ironically Letterman was himself the father of an illegitimate child.

He did. We’ll, funny Dave did, when NBC refused to give him the Tonight Show. All that remained was the husk you see commenting right now.

Dave's been at home, watching his beard grow.

It sounds easy, but it's a full time job for him.

Letterman! Isn’t he the pervert that used be someone funny once upon a time? Why would anyone care what he has to say?

Letterman is as bad of a so called comedian as Jimmy Kimmel is he is pure democrat socialist as long as his money isn’t in the game.

David, don’t you have a race team that needs your ‘leadership’?
