Taping tonight's episode of The Late Show, David Letterman took a few minutes to respond to Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who called him "pathetic" in a radio interview after he made her and her family the butt of a recent Top 10 list. The late-night host had drawn particular fire from Palin and some pundits for a joke about one of Palin's daughters being impregnated by New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez during a trip to Yankee Stadium. Camp Palin apparently took the joke to be a crack against Palin's 14-year-old daughter Willow, who had recently attended a Yankees game, but Letterman insisted today that the real target was 18-year-old daughter Bristol.
“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news and we made some jokes about Sarah Palin and her daughter [Bristol]... and now they’re upset with me…” Letterman says on tonight's show. "These are not jokes made about her 14-year-old daughter. I would never, never make jokes about raping or having sex of any description with a 14-year-old girl.... Am I guilty of poor taste? Yes. Did I suggest that it was okay for her 14-year-old daughter to be having promiscuous sex? No." Saying he hopes he's "cleared part of this up," Letterman extended an invitation to Palin to come on the show as a guest.
Lying POS...he was told after the first show about his mistake...this is unacceptable...HEY DAVE...FORGET INVITING SARAH ON....INVITE TODD ON...YOU POS...

As was said on the previous thread:
This is not an apology. He even makes further insults against Willow and Bristol.
Don’t let him get away with it.
Everyone should pay attention to this thread with direct contact info of his sponsors:

So, it’s OK to make sex jokes about an 18 year old girl? I think he’s lying, but even if he weren’t, it wouldn’t be a whole lot better.
By the way, where is NOW during all these vicious and pointless attacks on the Palin women?
Aveeno (owned by Johnson & Johnson)
Hey Letterman, did you hear the one about the Pedophile who kidnaps your little boy to test Viagra? No, because it is brutal and tasteless.
You are a has-been, trying to stay on TV against Conan who is kicking your old a**.
The best way to get Letterman is to boycott his sponsors and boycott that pathetic excuse of a show he has. He is just half ass apologizing to save his own ass. Screw him, CONTINUE TO BOYCOTT..this is how you will hurt Letterman, in CBS’s pocket and Letterman’s pocket. If Imus can be fired for saying “Nappy headed Hoes” then Letterman should be fired. Imus never said that he wanted those women to be raped..Letterman took it WAY over the line..he is a disgrace to the human race
Pretty sure he’s got loads of child porn on his computer.
Contact Procter & Gamble and tell them that you will boycott their company until they pull all advertising from David Letterman’s show:

I feel SO much better now that they said they woudl "look into it".
Still, at least I put it on their radar screen.
Rather than threaten boycott companies like this are very very concerned about their image. The choice of buying a candy bar is easily swayed to a different one. Mars makes many different kinds but its easy to pick one made by someone else.
Mars brands to avoid

Oh, yeah, Dave-- she'll be there right after she goes on Oprah.... why not hold your breath until she arrives?
You GOT it, Jess! I bet Letterman wouldn't be able to look Todd in the eye the entire interview, the cad. He really showed his true colors. What a schmuck.
" Thank you. We have received your email and will respond to you in due course."
You are a joke, but not because of your amazing humor.
