I was always taught if you have something to say about someone say it to their face rather than behind their backs. If you can't say it to their face, then don't say it at all.

So the consensus on the board is make fun of someone in the monologue then pull a 180 and be super nice to them in the interview? Seems phoney doesn't it?

If that's wrong in on the school yard, in the work place, and in your personal/professional lives, why is it the correct thing to do for Letterman?

Agreed.
