Fark Snooze LEAD STORY: "Should CBS Fire Dave? N.Y. Legislator (Brian Kolb) Makes The Case"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

New York State Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb, a Republican, is calling on the CEO of CBS to fire David Letterman for crude comments he made about Sarah Palin and her daughter.

In the letter to CBS chief Les Moonves, Kolb said he took Letterman to task for the "shockingly inappropriate" jokes.

“As the proud father of a daughter, and as a husband, I wanted Mr. Moonves to hear from me directly about Mr. Letterman’s disparaging remarks," Kolb said in a written statement.

“Firing Mr. Letterman would send a clear message that CBS will not tolerate any of its employees — even an established media figure like Mr. Letterman — making demeaning and degrading comments about women.”

1. ROFL

What a butt-head

:rofl:

[skiddlybop]

2. FABulous!

Dave Letterman has I am sure a pay-or-play contract that triples his salary if they ever take him off the air before the term is up.

Then he skips to ABC or NBC or even HBO or Showtime and then skips to the bank.

FABulous!

[imdjh]

3. They should have fired him years ago for being T I R E D. (IMO of course) nt

4. Misleading subject line.

FARK is an internationally respected & renowned news site.


At least when compared to Fox.

5. I was going to post F**K Snooze but I felt like I used up today's quota of F**Ks in my posts...

...it was an "executive decision," and I stand by it. The people who love me will forgive me for the unintentional snafu and the ones who don;t deserve to be taken out back and severely beaten anyway, ya know?

:rofl:

:toast:

6. Oh fuck off you republicon hypocrites..

whenever I see you whining about something I know for a fact that it's total bullshit. That's the reputation that you earned.

7. Letterman's joke was in bad taste

but no one's died/decided to go and try and kill someone because of it. He explained himself and apologized. Which is more than any of the right wing hacks on Fox will do for far, far worse statements.
