Quotes
[on interactions with David Letterman]: We play catch sometimes in the office, and we all go to screenings together. We eat food together, we sit around and watch TV together and goof on people.

So Letterman's reputation will suffer briefly, and the sleazy intern will get big bucks for articles, books, TV appearances and nudie layouts. Welcome to the wacky world of Celebrity.

Wow, she was making four times what others in her position made at the network. That means 3/4 of her pay was for sleeping with Letterman. After years of saying he didn't need a marriage certificate to be "married" to his girlfriend or be the father of his son (and belittling guests who questioned him about it), all of a sudden a short time back he gets "legally" married and now his lawyer is saying "he didn't have an affair during the time he was legally married, it was before". Who is the lawyer trying to fool? Who is Letterman trying to fool? Does he think because he got married a couple months back people aren't going to know the affair happened at a time he was having a baby with his "wife?" And his audience claps for him after he asks if people want to support his actions? Anyone who has attended Letterman's show since this has happened should be ashamed. What next? Are they going over to ask Roman Polanski to baby sit for them?

It is amazing how judgemental people are. First of all, it is none of our business who the man slept with! I think they were both of legal age! The man doesn't have to try to fool anyone except maybe his wife. As for us, NOT OUR BUSINESS!!
Why is this such a big issue? The only difference between him and another man is that his personal life is spread all over for people to judge! Don't be too judgemental, it may be in your family too.

Why are you Americans so obsessed with sex? And why are you so judgmental about it? Why do you care with whom Herr Letterman sleeps? I don't get it.

Letterman comes off the worse even though the alleged crime was at the hands of Halderman. Birkitt doesn't have clean hands since she knew the two men hated each other and Halderman was jealous of Letterman. If her diary was left for Halderman to look at then it is likely that was Birkitt's wish. Now this lady is an attorney, suppose to have gone to law school at Letterman's expense, to be his attorney. Attorneys can't sleep with their clients . . . Birkitt and other assistants are reported to have received many perks besides the college tuition . . . did they all report it on their IRS returns or was it payment for services rendered?
Regina Lasko deserved better from Letterman. Harry Letterman deserved better from his father. Letterman demeaned women and his mother and sisters deserved better from Letterman, not to drag his father's name through the dirt. Shame on him! It is troublesome to read his interactions with Birkitt were as recent as this past August, 2009. He was very married at that time.
Birkitt's parents must be very proud of her and to hear her grandmother tell the reporters her granddaughter did not sleep with that man (Letterman) and Stephanie should not have dated Halderman. The family certainly didn't have the facts. It is as if Birkitt played Letterman against Halderman with her actions.
I doubt that this is over . . . there will be much more to come out and I am guessing that Letterman and Birkitt will be the brunt of the negative information. Letterman will be less effective in his monologue as it is hard to slam others for their misdeeds when yours are the same or worse. Maybe it is time for Letterman to retire, return to his Montana ranch and spend some quality time mending his marriage and working on forgiveness from his wife.

Why try to polish this...just call it what it is,"baby mama syndrome" while baby daddy is out;baby mama is sitting at home drinking cool-aid waiting for baby daddy to get out of the office. That is how we relate to it in ghetto land. Money don't matter.See anyone can be ghatto.
