name someone to whom david letterman has been a serious a-hole

[shart_attack]

How many specific individuals can we name to whom the crown bully of late-night American television has been an asshole?

S'pose it shouldn't be too tough to come up with a slew of names that fit the criteria.

I can name seven or eight right off the top of my head, but I'll start by naming one of the easiest ones:

Joaquin Phoenix.

Who you got?

Joaquin Phoenix said he was seeking a talk show beatdown as part of the performance-art/prankster role he was playing at the time, and thanked Letterman for delivering it. Letterman's guests know what to expect.

Here's the original Joaquin Phoenix show, and the followup.

[IlarMeilyr]

Letterman is (now a days) a full fledged asshole. Thus he is an asshole to everybody.

 

[Synthaholic]

Who says Letterman is an asshole to begin with?

False premise.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Ya attacking children for laughs is always the sign of a good person.

 

[PredFan]

David Letterman hasn't been funny in over a decade.

 

[Sherry]

I loved Letterman years ago...but I thought he changed after his heart surgery, and he came off as bitter and unfunny to me after that.

It was before that.

He went bitter after not getting the Tonight Show gig and really went full buttpipe after leaving NBC.

Jay Leno has more class in his toe nail clippings.

You couldn't be more wrong. Letterman is the funniest guy in late night.

 

[Sarah G]

Who says Letterman is an asshole to begin with?

False premise.

He isn't, he's funny. I record his show everyday.

 

[Papageorgio]

Letterman quit being funny years ago, I used to watch him all the time, now he is just not funny, I record him once in a while, but I usually watch the interview I record it for and erase the rest. He has long passed his best years. They need to make a change and get some real entertainment.

Letterman is less funny than Jimmy Fallon. And that is some serious unfunny.

Naa, you all can't stand it that he hates wingnuts/teapartiers like Sarah Palin.

How many times has the Tonight Show tried to get rid of Jay Leno now?

As is so clearly displayed here, the whinyasstittybaby right was given marching orders to hate Letterman, and you won't find any of them disobeying. Disobedience would get them banished from the herd, and no conservative would risk a fate so terrifying to them.

That's another reason why it's so good to be a liberal. There's no list of people for whom hatred is mandatory. We just don't do the bitter obsessive hate thing.

Who said anything about hate, other than you?

If you disagree, you now hate, are you that fucking stupid? What is it with liberals being so dramatic and victimized?

Grow up and quit being a drama bitch.

Oh yes they do. You don't need a list when it includes "anyone that disagrees with me".

 

[Truthseeker420]

David Letterman is hilarious.

 

[Mr Natural]

Anyone who doesn't like Dave is an asshole.

Ya cause after all nothing says class and funny like attacking a 14 year old girl cause her mom happens to be a public figure. Remind us how you feel when someone attacks one of Obama's kids?

 

[mamooth]

When my point was how so many on the right are professional whinyasstittybabies, it's gratifying to see so many of them rushing to prove me correct.

Dave's a mean, mean man. He's mean to liberals too, yet you don't see us blubbering like little bitches over it. We can both take it and dish it out.
