Los Angeles Times: Letterman's damage control is a joke

An article in the LOS ANGELES TIMES about David Letterman's admission that he has had sex with women who work for the Late Night show quotes Elayne Rapping, professor of American studies, who said "there are so many of these scandals and they all show some apology or embarrassment, and this guy decided to control the damage by making it into a joke." The article also appeared in the CHICAGO TRIBUNE, ARIZONA REPUBLIC and NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN.
