	Dave Letterman
		Letterman also talks to the audience and makes them feel that they are the center focus of who is he talking to.
		Letterman does this uniquely by pointing out he is putting on a show, interacting with the band and camera men, and laughing with the audience at his or someone else's jokes.
		Letterman did not have to say anything, his expressions told the audience that he did not have patience for Paul to be playing around when he was trying to talk.

		Letterman joined Rahal's team in 1996 and when not in attendance at the races, the Indianapolis native waits by the FAX machine for the results from each practice and qualifying round.

	Letterman, David
		Letterman rose to fame as talk show host and celebrity during a period in television history when late-night talk, a unique TV genre, began to stretch beyond the confines of the solid, long-standing appeal of NBC's Tonight Show, starring the king of late night since 1962, Johnny Carson.
		Letterman's popularity was best exemplified, though, in the large number of discussions, references and imitations he inspired among fans, in the media and throughout popular culture.
		Letterman's persona was clearly a fitting celebrity for a culture impressed with one individual's ability to capture so much popular attention.

		Letterman steered his questioning toward her private life and, in particular, the singer's reported relationships with several NBA players.
		When Letterman abruptly changed topic and asked about her nose ring in an ambiguous way ("Did it hurt when you had that thing put in your nose?"), Madonna laughed and said "I thought you were going to ask me if it hurt something else..." which spurred a collective groan from the studio audience.
		Letterman asked her what was really bothering her; the star told the audience that she was angry that the comedian "periodically" made references to her sex life on the show.

	Dear Dave Letterman... - DBSForums Discussion Forums
		IMHO, Dave's show suffered in the move to CBS, but not significantly, only in the scope of being massaged by CBS and being put in a venue that is too large (440 seats vs. 199 at NBC), which throws the audience timing off.
		Dave is still the same Dave he always was, but its harder to be funny in the new venue, plus the fresh and irreverent schtick he invented can no longer (22 years later) apply here...Jon Stewart and The Daily Show currently own that crown hands down.
		Dave was also better when Paul had a 4-piece combo instead of a 7 piece horn-driven band, which changes the tone of things completely (again, thank the suits at CBS).

	David Letterman - AskMen.com
		Letterman's father, Harry Joseph Letterman was a florist, and unfortunately never got to see his great success, as he passed away in 1974, but his mother Dorothy, a Church secretary, is a regular personality on the show, as "Dave's Mom," the correspondent.
		Letterman even worked as a children's program host and a television weatherman, where his antics cost him his job after congratulating a tropical storm for being upgraded to hurricane status.
		Letterman packed up and headed to the "Eye" network, which had offered the betrayed host a lucrative 14-million dollar contract -- and he took his sidekick (Paul Shaffer, leader of the CBS Orchestra) and signature sketches with him.

	Dave Letterman: 'Why,' you ask?
		Dave is supposed to be – and usually is – funny.
		Of course, since it was Dave's audience, disposed to agree with whatever he says and also reacting to the angry way Dave asked, it applauded wildly.
		But host Dave's mistreatment of guest Bill still provokes me, especially in view of his audience's warmth to Dave's echoing question "Why are we in Iraq anyway?" It's become an acceptable social choice by now to forget the answer to that question.

		In fact, Letterman was doing O'Reilly a HUGE favor by even having him on the show at all...which I'm sure was pushed by CBS just to see if he could draw some ratings.
