    -snip- Embassy Suites, part of the Hilton Hotels Corp., pulled advertising on CBS' site because of complaints, company spokeswoman Kendra Walker told TVGuide.com. The company was not an advertiser on Letterman's show. "We received lots of e-mails from concerned guests and we assessed that the statement that he made was offensive enough to our guests and prospective guests that we elected to take the ads down," Walker said. She declined to release the cost of the ads. CBS declined to comment Tuesday. -snip

    "Late Show" w/ David Letterman ^ | June 15, 2009 | Real Clear Politics
    On Monday night's "Late Show" host David Letterman re-addressed his comments about Gov. Sarah Palin and her teenage daughter. Letterman made a more serious apology than his response last week. "I had, honestly, no idea that the 14-year-old girl, I had no idea that anybody was at the ball game except the governor, and I was told at the time she was there with Rudy Giuliani," Letterman said. The post has the full transcript and the video.

    David Letterman apologized tonight for a slanderous sexually degrading joke he told last week about Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's 14-year-old daughter getting "knocked up" by New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez during the seventh inning of a game attended by the governor and her daughter, yet he failed to apologize for a joke the following night in which he insinuated the 14-year-old girl was a prostitute--indicting himself in the process.The relevant portion of Letterman's apology: But there was a joke that I told, and I thought I was telling it about the older daughter being at Yankee Stadium. And it...

    The Augusta Chronicle ^ | June 15, 2009 | The Editorial Staff
    David Letterman insists they're just jokes. But his attacks on Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin are much more than that. Indeed, the late-night comedian managed to anger all sides with his nasty mocking of the Palin family -- particularly his snotty wisecrack that while Palin was visiting New York, her daughter (age 14) was "knocked up" by a Yankees player: Both the conservative Concerned Women for America and the liberal National Organization of Women denounced the remark. Letterman's attempt at humor revealed a sorrowful remnant of the cavalier manner in which society used to regard young women. But something even bigger...
  • The Ugly Face Of CBS: David Letterman And Don Imus

    CBS has an ugly face. But I’m not speaking of physical appearances; rather, I’m speaking of ideological appearances—the appearances that put racism and sexism on full display for Americans. Just as it did with Don Imus, and just as it did with David Letterman. If we are to take the case of David Letterman and Don Imus, we can easily see the clear distinction between the two cases. Don Imus—a radio “shock jock” for over thirty years was summarily discharged after his comments regarding the Rutgers Women’s basketball team.

    We all know that David Letterman stepped in it this week. Besides being an unfunny has been his jokes about the Palin family have lit up the dextrosphere and as near as I can tell people are still angry as hell about them. That's good because it gives the conservative right a chance to steal from the Obama playbook and go Alinsky on Letterman. This seems perfect for a little Rule 1, 3, and 12 combined action: Cynthia Yockey - A newly conservative lesbian - has some suggestions: 1.

  • Could Palin flap be Letterman's Hugh Grant?

    Yahoo/AP ^ | 6/20/2009 | DAVID BAUDER
    NEW YORK – Sarah Palin would no doubt be horrified by the idea, but there's a chance she could become the same boon to David Letterman's career that Hugh Grant was to Jay Leno's. The story had the effect of turning the attention to Letterman at a critical time, during the second week of his new competition with Leno's replacement, Conan O'Brien. Palin may have inadvertently given Letterman a platform at a time when it is most valuable; the next few weeks will show how he's been able to use it.
  • Obama's Lapdog Media Claims David Letterman Is The Victim Of Sarah Palin's "Attacks"

    Never mind that he clearly joked about the statutory rape of Gov. Palin's 14 year old daughter (she attended the baseball game with the governor), several outlets in the Obama Lapdog Media are making the perpetrator, David Letterman, out to be the victim. The New York Daily News: "Sarah Palin attacks David Letterman over 'sexually-perverted' joke." Sarah Palin lambasted late-night comedian David Letterman Wednesday for "sexually perverted comments" about one of her teenage daughters - and rebuffed his moves to make nice. Like hell he tried to make nice. The Silcon Valley Mercury News "Sarah Palin continues attacks on poor...

    The St. Paul Pioneer Press / The Politico ^ | June 12, 2009 | Daniel Libit
    The week-long scuffle between Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and late-night comedian David Letterman has given many on the political right something they've lacked in recent months — a tasty target. By cracking wise with references to Palin's "slutty flight attendant look" and her imaginary need to keep her daughter away from Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez, the "Late Show" host set off a significant political tempest. Experts and observers of politics and the media see two larger expediencies present: the funnyman's need to break through the late-night giggle chamber, particularly with Conan O'Brien's new gig on "The Tonight Show," and conservatives'...

    NRO Corner and PajamasMedia ^ | June 11 and 12, 2009 | Victor Davis Hanson
    NRO Corner: A Letterman apologist named Jason Zengerle at the TNR blog claims logic is not my strong suit since I defended Sarah Palin's family and thought Letterman's apology was, well, like most of what he does these days, infantile and cowardly: I know logic isn't VDH's strong suit, but is it really so hard to believe that the joke Letterman was making about a Palin daughter getting "knocked up" was about the Palin daughter who, you know, got knocked up? Is that supposed to be funny in a Lettermanesque way? Zengerle apparently cannot follow basic logic, so here...

    I never much cared for that David Letterman fellow, and not just because his show is on way past my bedtime. But I think he’s finally lost it! The other night he made some weird joke about Sarah Palin’s 14-year-old daughter getting raped by a baseball player at a charity event. I didn’t really get it – young people today have a funny sense of humor, I guess. After some normal folks complained, Letterman said he was sorry, but not really. You could tell he didn’t think he’d done anything wrong. I’m surprised Todd Palin didn’t drive his snowmobile down...

    Will you teach your son to talk about women and girls the way you talk about Sarah Palin and her daughters? You called the married 45-year-old mother, grandmother and Alaska governor a "slutty flight attendant" on your national TV talk show because she happens to be a tall, beautiful and dynamic public figure who doesn't look, walk or talk the way you think she should. You joked on national television about Palin's teenage daughter "getting knocked up" by professional baseball player Alex Rodriguez or solicited by the prostitute-addicted former New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer because it's acceptable in your...

On this morning’s Today, after displaying the Palin statement shown in the screencap: “it would be wise to keep Willow away from David Letterman,” Matt Lauer had this question for the Alaska guv. MATT LAUER: Are you suggesting that David Letterman can’t be trusted around a 14-year old girl? SARAH PALIN: Hey, take it however you want to take it. View video here.

    Conversation was thick at the Cigar Inn today. Mostly over lunatic James W. von Brunnm who walked into Washington, D.C.’s Holocaust museum and murdered guard Stephen T. Johns, who had the bad luck to be on duty. von Brunn was shot, but unfortunately he is still alive. Word is that he is in critical condition, so there is still a chance for justice to take place. Irv Levine (we call him Lefty because he always grips his butts with his left thumb and pinkie) was holding forth, as usual, but with special passion today, as you might imagine. He raised...
