NEWS.i.e. Late Show Hosts on Spitzer


Everyone and their mother has something to say about Spitzer. Myself including. But I just knew the late show hosts were going to have a ball with this one. Here's what they have to say:

Stephen Colbert remained deadpan on his Comedy Central Colbert Report, saying of Spitzer, “I sat next to the guy three times and I didn’t pick up on any of this, and I usually have excellent whore-dar.”

• Spitzer, who was accused of being Client 9 for the call-girl ring, was even topic one with Late Night host Conan O’Brien, who joked, “Not surprisingly, clients 1 through 8 were Charlie Sheen.”

• Finally, The View co-host Joy Behar opined, “Aren’t you sick of men? Viagra is destroying our government.”

• “They’re talking about impeaching Eliot Spitzer if he doesn’t step down,” said Late Show’s David Letterman, “and I’m thinking, ‘Whoa, a Democrat being impeached for extramarital sex. Well, happy days are here again!’ ” And adding, “Client 9 will soon be looking for wife No. 2”.
