David Letterman says someone has demanded $2 million from him in return for not blowing the lid on Letterman's sexual liaisons in his office.

Letterman said on his show tonight he received a package 3 weeks ago from someone claiming to have info about sexual escapades between Letterman and some female employees on his staff.

According to Nikki Finke the individual said Letterman would have to pay $2 million to keep the info secret.

Letterman went on to say he contacted the Special Prosecution Bureau of the Manhattan D.A.'s office. He said the D.A. investigated and cut a phony $2 million check to the alleged extortionist who was arrested today.

Letterman says he testified today before the grand jury. In his testimony, he says he acknowledged sexual relationships with members of his staff.

Letterman married his girlfriend of 23 years last March.

LOl, I am jumping around on 3 or 4 threads and now you are getting me confused!

I didn’t read all of the article, just know he was fooling around with members of his staff.

Letterman is the boss

He controls who is on his staff

He controls who is hired or fired

From now on Letterman may be the butt of other hosts jokes -

Yeah I know he is the boss.
Your previous remark can be taken in two different ways. When I read it I thought you meant he was ‘hiring girlfriends for OTHER staff’.

It is the old Hollywood and NYC show-biz way

Except this time Letterman set himself up

Whoever tried to blackmail him should have written a book instead
But then Letterman would have turned his lawyers loose on him

And of course, the adulterer comes across as a funny man.

This guy is despicable.
