He seemed to be getting more laughs than Dave at some points... I wondered if the "applause" light was flashing. Just like while on Hannity, Stern got all his points in. Stern and Letterman always seem to have more fun though.

..and yes, the shirt was a nice touch... He should have brought one for Dave.

Stern to Letterman: CBS Will Sue You Next

Howard Stern showed up at CBS' "Late Show with David Letterman" taping Monday evening in New York, wearing a "I Hate Les Moonves" T-shirt, complete with a picture of the CBS chief and his wife, "Early Show" co-host Julie Chen.

Some choice tidbits from the King of All Media, who's battling a $218 million fraud and breach of contract suit from CBS:

-- "I believe you are working for one of the biggest jerks on the planet," Stern tells Letterman. "You've worked for jerks and bullies who hide behind their press agents. Les Moonves is a bully."

-- Stern: "I'm not going to let Les Moonves do to me what he did to Dan Rather." He also suggests that Moonves fired former "60 Minutes" executive producer Don Hewitt.

-- When Letterman brings up Moonves' success at CBS, Stern shoots back: "Don't defend him. He'll sue you next."

-- Referring to Moonves' past acting career, Stern says: "CBS took a third-rate 'Love Boat' actor and made him CEO."

-- Stern also denies CBS' contention of a "secret deal" that enriched Stern at his new employer Sirius, and calls the lawsuit "a vendetta."

-- Letterman gets Stern to talk a bit about his plastic surgery, with before-and-after photos. The radio host says he had his nose "shaved down a bit." Stern to Letterman: "You can look like this too."

And here's the corporate statement from CBS:

We did not stand in the way of Howard appearing on our own airwaves tonight. We believe his appearance was his desperate attempt to distract attention from the facts of the case. We hope, in subsequent coverage of that appearance, the media is not seduced or fooled in any way. Howard Stern has done something wrong and we intend to demonstrate this wrongful conduct in court.

Funny what you see when you're not in default...

Usually Howard does well on Letterman, last night he seemed somewhat erratic. Dave being supportive of Les and making reasonable points... No doubt he was told to push the CBS line. Dave was visibly uncomfortable at points, but that had to be a tough position for him.

Overall it was good, not great IMO. Some points, like a potential countersuit, needed more time and substance. Others, like Les at the Oscar party, didn't need anytime at all.

I watched some of Stern on H&C last week.

"...Les Moonves, with his capped teeth...saying he's going to sue me..."

"Interesting that he's suing me the same day the horrible numbers came out for my "replacements"...."

"I haven't seen the money people think I'm getting..."

Howard boosts Dave's ratings a bit

"I hate Les Moonves" t-shirt is on e-Bay already... Guess that means someone who begged for it on Howard's show is selling?? Les should have a staffer call, pretend to be a fan, and request one.
