"Fire David Letterman" Protest Becomes Hatefest - Video »

Posted By TimALoftis 6 months, 2 weeks ago in Arts & Entertainment

New York Magazine videographer Jonah Green was one of those press members, and he captured a disturbing video of several of those protesters in hate-filled rants against the CBS "Late Show" host.

Among the more alarming lines of attack -- particularly given that the rally was held because Letterman supposedly made a joke about Sarah Palin's teenage daughter Willow -- was that Letterman's son Harry was born out of wedlock (he recently wed Regina Lasko after dating for over a decade).

"Should we talk about his son?" one protester asked Green. "I believe his son was born out of wedlock. I believe there's a term for that."

"Is someone making jokes about his child?" asked another. "Especially, you know, when he had a daughter out of wedlock himself" (he didn't; 5-year-old Harry is his only child).

"How dare he?" asked yet a third, the most offensive of all. "When he has a bastard son, and a **** for a wife" (Letterman's wife Lasko has kept a notoriously low profile).

    Wow...I think some of these folks might have been a part of those wild McCain/Palin rallies that we all witnessed last fall.

    Now if they would only put that much effort and energy into an issue that is a REAL issue. I can't believe how far some people are willing to go over this.

    If there were a market for idiots, we could fix the economy with these dolts.

      A hatefest? You mean what happens every time the left talks about Sarah Palin or her family?
