Letterman's Folly

The more that I hear about David Letterman and his actions the less I consider him as a person. When he was forced to let the truth of his actions become public, it was only because of the fact that he would either pay a large sum of money or make his actions become public. Apparently over time Mr. Letterman liked to have very private moments with the women members of his staff. In fact a child was born to one woman who had been on his staff. He did later marry this women and does brag about their son.
Well that is not the real issue. At the least this series of actions is a moral failure and should be against the policy of his employer.
Is Mr. Letterman an employee of CBS and violating corporate policy?
Is he an employee of his production company and should he fire himself? Or should CBS end his contract for moral reasons.
I know of other lesser known people working in the broadcast business that have lost their jobs for far less obvious reasons then are apparent here. One case I was aware of was a technical employee who had a photo calendar showing women in very limited amount of clothing (not nudity). The calendar was hung on the back of a door that was only closed when the work area was not being used. A female employee of the company happened to see the calendar and reported it to a supervisor. The male employee was fired. I am not commenting on this issue specifically just commenting on the extremes of the two cases. It should become clear that someone needs to look into the issues that are involved in Mr. Letterman’s situation. How free was the relationship involved in the sexual relations that were going on with employees on his television show? How free can a person be when the boss is the one who is asking you to have sex? Is this really just a return to the old movie industry casting couch? At least one of the women also did appear on his TV show.

So I guess the time has come to stop laughing at the situation and let an independent agency look at the ethics and the morality that seems to have been a failure here and maybe, if the Internet is correct, as a more pronounced situation at CBS.
