The alleged extortionist will get his day in court. However it would appear that Dave was in violation of CBS Corps ethics policy regarding

Supervisor/Subordinate Relationships [page 11]
CBS recognizes that consenting romantic or sexual
relationships may develop between a supervisor and a
subordinate (whether such supervision is direct or indirect).
These relationships frequently lead to complications and
significant difficulties for the supervisor, the subordinate,
others in the workplace, and CBS.

If a consenting romanticor sexual relationship between a supervisor and a direct or indirect subordinate should develop, CBS requires
the supervisor to disclose this information to his or her
Company’s Human Resources Department to ensure
that there are no issues of actual or apparent favoritism,
conflict of interest, sexual harassment, or any other
negative impact on others in the work environment.
Upon being informed or learning of the existence of
such a relationship, CBS will take steps that it deems

appropriate to protect the workplace environment.

If Dave had actually followed the policy he wouldn't be in this situation. Now, perhaps he did report the relationship(s) to CBS, I don't know b/c CBS is characteristically quiet about such issues involving one of their own.

I've been wondering all along what the women concerned would have to say.

Would you admit to sleeping with him?

It's Obama's fault.

I really think this is a non-issue. If it was a problem, someone would have spoken up by now. Bill survived Monica, Dave will survive.

Why are Americans so afraid of sex?

I just mean I wanted to know whether it was consensual (if I really cared, that is). Of course, every interaction with your boss (sexual or other) is never among equals.
If I were bothered at all (I ain't), it would rather be because of some shady extortionist who tries to create public moral outrage out of a case in which he wasn't even remotely personally involved (I suppose) so that he can rake in the money. The epitome of hypocrisy.
Letterman is perfectly entitled to expose such a git to ridicule.
