Letterman

David Letterman stunned his audience (some of whom didn't realize he was being serious) last night when he revealed he had slept with female staffers and was the subject of a $2 million extortion attempt by a CBS News employee.

The extortionist is said to be a 48 Hours staffer Robert Halderman by an AP source: "The person spoke on condition of anonymity because authorities have not released the suspect's name. A '48 Hours' producer named Joe Halderman was part of a teamnominated for an Emmy for outstanding continuing coverage of a newsstory in a news magazine in 2008. Two numbers listed for Halderman weredisconnected, and a message left at a third number was not immediatelyreturned Thursday."

Halderman was busted outside of CBS yesterday. The woman involved with Letterman has also been named.
