NEW YORK (AP) - CBS says an employee has been charged with
attempted grand larceny in an investigation involving "Late Show"
host David Letterman, who has acknowledged that he had sexual
relationships with female employees and that someone tried to
extort $2 million from him over the affairs.
CBS says the employee worked on "48 Hours" and has been
suspended pending the results of the investigation. The network
says the employee was arrested Thursday, hours before Letterman
went public with his account during a taping of his show in New
York.
The network says it's cooperating with authorities.
