Letterman. Repeat.

More Letterman. Keep this up and I’ll have to devote a Tumblr to you, ya old coot.

Updated: A NYPost story on the pissed off CBS execs who didn’t like Letterman using a live feed of CBS News during his show.

Asked if CBS officials had a problem with Letterman using the internal news feed, a spokeswoman for “The Evening News” refused to address the issue. But several CBS News executives - who asked not to be identified - said that the stunt did not go down well within the news division.

“If we had done something like that to him, someone around here would end up getting fired,” one said.

News officials found out Letterman was using the internal feed shortly after it showed up on an internal CBS feed carrying the “Late Show” taping. “They were pretty aggravated,” a CBS News source told The Post. “But they were not about to start a fight with Letterman,” the source said. “We’re in the middle of a heavy, heavy news cycle and Letterman is Letterman. “He does whatever he wants and always has.”
