Arianna On Leno: Memo To Men: Don’t Have Affairs With Your Employees Unless You’re Letterman


Here is the thing that most people have not managed to grasp.

David Letterman was the boss in every exchange. It is actually immaterial if the women hit on him and actually wanted to have sex with him, or if he initiated the relationship.

He should have known that he should not have had that kind of personal relationship with anyone who works for him. Ultimately he is in control. Once you hit the slipperly slope none of the women could reasonably control the relationship. They could not break it off with out fear of losing their job. Hell, they might have even feared denying him one night out of many, because he could have gotten them demoted or fired at any time.

I like Letterman as a comic, don’t know him personally. However, even he admits that he was wrong. It was unprofessional.

I still wish he stays on. He still has a lot of good years left in him. I guess he might get out of this relatively unscathed if he at least showed some sense and picked women who hold nothing against him even now.

    I am on Dave's side in this matter. It was consensual and he didn't threaten any of them even after they stopped having sex. And while it is a general personal rule not to fish off the company pier, many, many, many people do in every profession.
  • I am not really on a side, so to speak. I think it was unprofessional for him to do what he did, but like you said he is not the only unprofessional person in the world.
