Dave Receives Thunderous Applause In First Night Back At Work Since Sex Scandal Broke
Posted on Mon Oct 5, 2009 03:21 PM PDT
David Letterman took to the stage of the Ed Sullivan theater this afternoon for the first time since he revealed he was the victim of a bizarre extortion plot against him, where he received a standing ovation from the packed house.
"Did your weekend just fly by?" Dave deadpanned in typical fashion.
He went on to apologize to his wife by saying:
- "She has been horribly hurt by my behavior and when something happens like that, if you hurt a person and it's your responsibility, you try to fix it. And at that point, there's only two things that can happen: either you're going to make some progress and get it fixed, or you're going to fall short and perhaps not get it fixed, so let me tell you folks, I got my work cut out for me."
Regarding the apology he feels he owes to his staff:
- "I'm terribly sorry that I put the staff in that position," he said. "Inadvertently, I just wasn't thinking ahead. And, moreover, the staff here has been wonderfully supportive to me, not just through this furor, but through all the years that we've been on television and especially all the years here at CBS, so, again, my thanks to the staff for, once again, putting up with something stupid I’ve gotten myself involved in."
Seems like it's back to business as usual, right?

Yes, let's all applaud adulterers and people who take advantage of their female employees. Yeah, go Dave!
This guy is just awful!! All the BAD jokes he had made of adulterous relationships of other people are now choking him hahahaha
That was despicable. Obviously they told the audience to applaud and cheer. Seems like there's tons of planted comments all over the place pro-Dave and crap like this because they're trying to convince everyone he's not a scumbag. HE IS A SCUMBAG. His whole joking smarmy attitude about it is also creepy. He doesn't really feel bad. He's manipulating the public so he can trick them he's a good guy so he saves face.
How has he taken advantage of anyone? There is no mention of sexual harassment. The women were of consenting age, he was not married, where's the scandal? I think people are surprised that Dave has sex, like he said in his opening remarks. If any one of the women came out and said they felt pressured to date him that would be different. Dave only needs to answer to his long time girlfriend, now wife, for his behavior. And I didn't vote for him, I just tune in for a laugh, there is a difference. Dave's not trying to prevent gays from marriage, while dating guys is he like most of the morally retarded republicans?
Karma is a b*itch.
I always knew he hated women.
The perverted thoughts about Gov. Palin's daughters said it all about him.
never did like this simpleton,he always attracted the "easily entertained"
immature crowds.
Love you Dave!
"How did he take advantage of women?"
Well, how about screwing female staff members while your girlfriend is carrying your son? Would you consider he took advantage of his now WIFE back then?
I have so much respect for Letterman for standing up to that scum. That's what every body should do to blackmailers.
I hope his wife accept his apology.
DL 1. Halderman 0. LOL. The dude must be cursing his luck in his jail cell. 'Goddammnit. I thought he would cave in. That MOFO DL!!!
I wonder how they got the word "Thunderous" in front of the applause lights
Yeah, sure Dave, whatever? You should have told your wife, I might have been having sex with them, but I was thinking of you, Hahahaha. Wait'll he hears her say, Dave, remember that mailman??? The plumber?? The Hydro guy??
Become a Hutterite!!
