TV OFFENSES

I take offense with Ann Bellchambers who refered to David Letterman as “the jackass of the airwaves,” and “Late Night With David Letterman” as a talk show (Calendar Letters, June 9).
For her information, “Late Night” is a comedy show, not some fluffy talk show. Dave doesn’t stoop to wasting his and our time feeding the already corpulent egos of today’s celebrities by providing still another forum for “superstars” to mouth off on their personal lives.
To keep up-to-date on your favorite stars and their latest marriages, divorces, diets and cocaine addictions, I suggest the National Enquirer or People. For the funniest show on television, and one of the only programs worth watching, turn to Dave.
