Olive Garden Pulls their Ads from Late Show with David Letterman

Now this is the only way for these "comedians" to understand that all jokes aren't created equal. Hopefully other people like John Stewart should understand that when you go after a politician the children are off limits. If not then your sponsors pull their money. They should keep in mind that 56.3 million Americans voted for the other guy in the last election.

In an email to a Letterman critic obtained by POLITICO, a spokeswoman for the Italian restaurant chain wrote that “there will be no more Olive Garden ads scheduled for ‘The Late Show’ with David Letterman in this year's broadcast schedule,” citing the talk show host’s “inappropriate comments.”

“We apologize that Mr. Letterman’s mistake, which was not consistent with our standards and values, left you with a bad impression of Olive Garden,” wrote Sherri Bruen, the company’s guest relations manager.
