Speaking of Sharon Reed

David Letterman tonight groused openly about sexy news anchor Sharon Reed, who apparently won't be given the OK by her Cleveland CBS station to appear on his national CBS show. As he wondered aloud: She can be nude in Cleveland but not be fully clothed on my show...how does that work?

Even the New York Times found a way to get the story and a picture of a naked Reed onto its pages during the holiday weekend. Pass the turkey, please! Dave flashed the Times on air Monday before asking to get Reed on the program. Oh well. Maybe a groundswell of public opinion will help you out, Dave. Then again, he cannot seem to get Oprah on his show, either.
