Lauer is as clueless as Katie Couric. They are both an embarrassment to their craft (I will not dignify the entertainment/press industry by calling it a profession). As for Letterman, instead of an apology, I'd be happy to see his asshole kicked up so far it interferes with his ability to breathe.

Palin: what a real feminist sounds like Palin Tells Matt Lauer to stop apologizing for sexism: This is what a feminist sounds like! Friday, June 12, 2009 at 10:40 am — admin Sorry, but This is what a feminist sounds like: blogs.usatoday.com. Gov. Palin had the guts to call Lauer out on his “naive” willingness to believe Letterman as he tried to back out of sexually degrading jokes he clearly told about Willow (age 14) who was with her mother on the trip to New York. If Palin took Willow to a ball game and Letterman made jokes about THAT trip to the BallPark and the daughter getting knocked up by A-Rod at THAT game, the DUH, it was about Willow. Lauer is clearly trying to be dumber that he is! Palin stood for none of that! Rock it GIRL! Palin called on comics to stop making Degrading comments about young women! Bravo! She Calls on us to rise up against such sexism. Bravo! Palin also said: No wonder women have such low self esteem in this country when we laugh at this sort of sexualized targeting of teen girls. What is astounding (listen to the video!) is that the doltish Matt Lauer seems to think that degrading comments about women have no connection to violence to women. Hmmm, what galaxy does Lauer live in? Palin said: We are in a position to take a stand against the disrespect shown to females. If we haven’t the nerve to boo or walk out. when such comments are made, shame on us! Lauer tried to say Palin crossed the line when she suggested it would be wise to keep Letterman away from her daughter. HA, whawt {sic} a dimwit! ANY parent would keep their child away from a creep who talked about their young daughter is such a despicable fashion. GET a clue, sexist Lauer! Wake up and smell the revolt against misogyny! The audience is NOT laughing, even when the talk is about grown up women! ZERO TOLERANCE to sexism! femisex.com
