LINK: David Letterman Apologizes to Sarah Palin Again
Reports have surfaced that David Letterman offered yet another apology to Sarah Palin at this afternoon’s taping of his show set to air later tonight. He couldn’t have made a bigger mistake.
By apologizing again, not only is Letterman giving legitimacy to Palin’s ridiculous claims that his “perverted” jokes inspire sexual mistreatment of women, but it also breathes new life into an issue that had sort of fizzled out of the news cycle over the weekend. Besides, does he really think that Palin will ever accept any apology from him? Of course not! This will just give the media another opportunity to stick cameras and microphones in Palin’s face so she can continue to bray on and on and on about “David Letterman” being a dirty old man. He’d have been much better off ignoring it and letting all of this fade away, as it was already beginning to do, but instead he winds up essentially vindicating Palin’s unwarranted indignation instead.
