Craig Ferguson addresses Letterman scandal (video)

“Late Late Show” host Craig Ferguson has a unique perspective on the David Letterman sextortion scandal, as noted in this article by the Associated Press.

Letterman’s production company, Worldwide Pants (insert your own joke here) produces Ferguson’s show, which directly follows Letterman’s “Late Show” on CBS. Because of pre-taping, Ferguson couldn’t address the situation on his Friday night show, but he spent a good chunk of time Monday night talking (and joking) about his boss’ recent difficulties, asking the audience members to put themselves in his shoes.

“The person you work for, the person you admire and respect, is caught in an embarrassing situation. And your job is to be funny about that, whilst trying to keep your own job,” he joked. “So this is my last show.”

Here’s video of Ferguson’s Monday night monologue:
