David Letterman stunned his audience last night when he spent 10 minutes revealing an extortion plot against him for 2 million dollars, with the blackmailer threatening to release the details of several affairs Letterman had with girls who worked on the show. Also stunned was the girl he’s been dating since 1986. They had a son together in 2003 and they (Dave and the girl, not Dave and the son) got married last March.
CBS says the suspected blackmailer was a CBS employee who worked on the true-crime show ‘48 Hours’. And apparently he wasn’t paying attention to work at all because his plan sucked and he was instantly tricked and caught. Yahoo says…
Three weeks ago, Letterman said, he got in his car early in the morning and found a package with a letter saying, “I know that you do some terrible, terrible things and that I can prove that you do some terrible things.” He acknowledged the letter contained proof.
He said it was terrifying “because there’s something insidious about (it). Is he standing down there? Is he hiding under the car? Am I going to get a tap on the shoulder?”
Letterman said he called his lawyer to set up a meeting with the man, who threatened to write a screenplay and a book about Letterman unless he was given money. There were two subsequent meetings, with the man given a phony $2 million check at the last one.
He told the audience that he had to testify before a grand jury on Thursday.
He said “the creepy stuff was that I have had sex with women who work for me on this show. My response to that is yes, I have. Would it be embarrassing if it were made public? Yes, it would, especially for the women.”
I think the moral here is that I need to get some women to work on the website. I’m mostly looking for someone who will sleep with me. Can I just put that in the ad or will it seem too needy.
Don’t dab your pen in the company ink
“Or I’ll write a screenplay about it?”
Really? That is the master plan you twat(said with the proper inflection which stresses the A)?
You are going to write what is, without question, the hardest form of writing to sell…as blackmail?
In 2009 I hardly doubt a sex scandal would rock the Letterman Show. If he was snorting cocaine off of a 13 year-old’s bloated corpse the industry would still back him.
What a complete fucking idiot.
B to the oring. No TT’s ?
Less words, more tits please and thank you
The boss banged an intern?
Good jolly, I never heard that one before.
Is there a Letterman - sextape on the internet?
Speaking as a man who has had more affairs than I can count on one hand. (I like pussy) I think this shows the value of telling people to fuck off.
There’s nothing wrong with hiding something you’re not supposed to do, but if you get caught, turn it around quickly and kick the fucker’s nuts in.
Bravo, I say. This strikes a blow for cheating pigs everywhere.
I dont’ know if it’s the muscle relaxers or just giving fuck all, but I’m not doing shit at work today
David Letterman had sex?
Letterman sex tape?
Shudders…..
But Kudos to him for owning up and telling the blackmailer to fuck off.
when you have sex with letterman, does paul sit in the corner with his keyboard and play background music and make absurd comments or laugh at you during?
Watching this now. Letterman kicks ass!
Way to nut up, Mother Fucker!!!
I think the bigger story is that Letterman is proving what we’ve thought about women all along. He’s neither attractive nor funny (and is so old that Bill Maher calls him dad), so women just want to fuck guys with money.
Ssnake…Chiefs, R’s are in Minnnnnesooooota for the end of the season.
how stupid are you to meet with lawyers and talk to them about extortion??
That’s a bit cynical, Knight, but probably accurate.
Coming clean about an affair is the hardest thing I ever did. I’m glad I didn’t have to do it on national TV. That took balls.
Makes me wonder, though, how the guy got the info and what ‘proof’ he had. Pictures? Affidavits from the screw-ees?
man fuck letterman. His shit hasnt been funny since 98. Leno had him beat by a long shot
“Leno had him beat by a long shot”
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
When asked for comment, Drew Barrymore said: “I didn’t realize we were having sex, I just thought I was auditioning for Stupid Human Tricks”
Letterman has never been funny. I hope this ends up making him have crappy ratings and leave television.
