The Bristol Stomp

"Late-night TV hosts tread lightly with Palin."

I'm not sure if this was newsworthy, but since the AP did, let's look at the first piece of evidence offered:

CBS "Late Show" host David Letterman made the pregnancy the subject of only his fifth and last joke about the selection of the Alaska governor as John McCain's running mate.

What David Bauder of the AP fails to tell you--which pretty much makes his story worthless--is that after the monologue, Letterman sat down behind his desk, let his hair down, and delivered a long ramble where he explained that it's stupid how people are afraid to talk about Bristol's pregnancy, that Sarah Palin is an unfit mother, and, while we're at it, that John McCain shouldn't be running for President.
