I woke up this morning and opened the NY Times, a luxury I afford myself on Tuesdays because of the science section. Unlike Rachel Maddow, I no longer watch television because of a recent downturn in my economic structure and I must content myself with the “news” as it is filtered by the internet and the sites that I choose to read to keep me abreast of happenings in the world.
I was marginally aware of the extortion plot against David Letterman. The revelation to me was like so many other pimples that have come to light about some celebrity, whether political or in the entertainment world, brought into glaring 3-D mega vision by the powers that control and mastermind what is important and is featured in the MSM. I, like millions of others, didn’t really care about the details of Letterman’s sex life with or without his wife. Other people’s pimples and their trials and tribulations with them are just that – theirs!
So, when the august NY Times chose to report again about Mr. Letterman’s, obviously numerous, sexual misjudgments with numerous staff members on the front page of the business section today, I decided that it was high time to send out a little missive to the powers that be: I, and millions of other people just like me don’t care about who or what David Letterman has slept with, is sleeping with, or might sleep with in the future. I picked up the business section to find out about BUSINESS, not someone’s lame excuse about not thinking, at the high time of sexual encounter and release, how their actions would look in the glaring light of day. Give me a break! He, like every other high profile man who has gotten his real head caught in his zipper for all the world to see, never has a unique or plausible explanation for dipping their wicks in unchartered waters. Wow, who would have ever thought?
NY Times editorial staff….get over it. If you’re all really turned on by the revelation, take the man to lunch or dinner and have an intimate talk with him to slack your perversions and interests. Give your readers what we pay for when we buy your newspaper – the news.
