age span dave letterman extortion late night talk show Show talk show host
Big Dave is always “up to na good” as they say in the rap industry, but this past week has been crazy even for him.
The veteran talk show host first hit news at the end of last week with reports surfacing about an alledged extortion case against Letterman via a former employee of the network.
Now Letterman apparently had a fling with an intern back in the 90′s who she says “was madly in love” with Dave. Holly Hester, the woman making the claim, says Letterman and her dated for quite some time without anyone on the staff having the faintest idea. The relationship was apparently broken up because Dave said the age span was just too great.
All this material has set up plenty of opportunities to rub it in on Dave, creating material that is even better than the whole Sarah Palin fued.
Former late night talk show rival Jay Leno didn’t waste a beat to rub it in.
As always we turn to our TPH audience to help sort out another celebrity mess.
How big is this whole extortion deal and what do you make of the inner-love conspiracy?
Will this destroy Letterman’s legacy or will people forget about it after a couple of months?

Not to date myself, but I remember setting the VCR to record Letterman. He was a pioneer and doing stuff on television no one had ever done before.
Sadly that Letterman is gone.
He’s a sad, pathetic, immoral old man who’s no longer funny. The reason why we watched him was because he was more like “us” then like “them.” Apparently that’s not true.
Hey Dave, you want Polanski freed too?
