Speaking in a far more serious tone than he did last week -- David Letterman admitted on tonight's show how his wife Regina "has been horribly hurt by my behavior."
David continued by saying, "If you hurt a person, and it's your responsibility, you try to fix it ... so let me tell you folks, I have my work cut out for me."
Before addressing the situation with his wife, David was a bit more jovial -- apologizing to his staff members for subjecting them to all the drama caused by his situation ... then cracking a joke about hooking up with his announcer, Alan Kalter.
David also wanted to make it clear that his sexual exploits with staff members were a "thing of the past."

I love the Dave Letterman show. I hope he can straighten out his life and this mess. I feel sorry for his wife and child. I am sure she is very, very hurt. He should be ashamed of himself for doing that, but so many men think they can do whatever and it's okay as long as they don't get caught.

It was his responsibility not to hurt his wife horribly in the first place.
DL is a very shallow man. I'd leave him. Womanizers don't feel deeply about any woman.

What's the big deal? It's not like he is a politician or some sort of moral leader. He wasn't even married when this is supposed to happen. Move on.

Rich old guy slept with the women around him? I'm just appalled.

steve, you're just as sick and twisted as dave. you sound like an animal. animals and barbarians treat each other like pieces of meat. civilized people place value on more than just the body and looks. but you wouldn't know that since you're a pig. good luck in life.

If this had been one incident, or even a few incidents, I would be more impressed by Letterman's apology. However, he was just doinkin' around having a great old time until he got caught. I doubt that thoughts were going through his mind about how much he was hurting his family when he was screwing around. It just kills me how men are always sooooooo sorry about hurting people once they get caught. He didn't just have sex, he had "relationships" that went on for years. I feel so sorry for his wife and son.
