The rest of the TV-watching world is obsessing over Conan O'Brien, "The Tonight Show" and NBC at the moment, so it's no real surprise that David Letterman is too.Dave just has a nationwide platform from which to take his jabs at his former employers, something he's done with more than a little bit of zeal in the past few days.
Tuesday night's (Jan. 12) edition of "The Late Show" was no exception, as Letterman devoted much of his monologue to the O'Brien-Jay Leno-NBC late-night fiasco, including a proposed new show to help fill NBC's 10 p.m. hole:
Ouch. But when material like this presents itself to you, it's awfully hard to ignore it.

Shouldn't Dave be on that too?
@sarah: Letterman hasn't exactly been "victimized" by Leno like the NBC guys.
given that Letterman was handpicked by Carson as his replacement and was pretty spectacularly screwed, I think he qualifies for the list as well.
I think David Letterman is a jerk and is relieved to be able to have the focus off his own stupid butt for a change with his sexist and gay bashing remarks and his dalliances while he was living with his girlfriend/now wife. Leno beat him while he was on at 11:30 regularly and he hates to see him have to compete with him again.
Leno has been a victim by the fact that he's being pushed to late night to only go for half an hour. It's a travesty and no way to treat him.
Yeah! Jay Leno is such an arrogant narcissist, it seems that he has NBC eating out of his hand. Awesome that Letterman is on Conan's side, like the rest of the "cool" world. TEAM CONAN!
Mr.Jay Lamo, Stop torturing people. Just retire.
Put Leno back in the 1130 slot for the entire hour and boot Conan! Leno is the man!!!!
