David Letterman Hints At Retirement In Two Years
February 4th, 2011
It was a subtle bombshell, but a bombshell nonetheless. David Letterman hinted that he may hang up his talk show boots in “two years”, during an interview with Howard Stern on Thursday night’s Late Show (Feb 3).
The President of Letterman’s company, Worldwide Pants, put out a statement explaining the comment.
“Dave and Howard are very rare entities in show business in that most people are asked to leave the stage. These guys have complete control over their own exits,” Rob Burnett said. “Dave has mused on air about retiring lots of times. Whenever the day comes that he actually chooses to announce his departure, I don’t think that announcement will be ambiguous.”
