Late-night talk show host David Letterman joked this week that if U.S. film and TV writers go on strike, as is widely feared, he would be forced to write his own material to keep his show on the air.
"It might be fun ... to tune in and see what I can come up with on my own," the sardonic star of the CBS "Late Show with David Letterman" said, drawing laughs from a studio audience.
The more likely scenario should the Writers Guild of America declare a strike is that Letterman would join arch rival Jay Leno of NBC's "The Tonight Show" and other late-night funnymen, including cable TV stars Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, in taking a forced vacation. [Reuters]
