Notification of a TFA nomination
In the past, there have been requests that discussions about potentially controversial TFAs are brought to the attention of more than just those who have WP:TFAR on their watchlist. With that in mind: Fuck: Word Taboo and Protecting Our First Amendment Liberties has been nominated for an appearance as Today's Featured Article. If you have any views, please comment at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests. Thank you. — Cirt (talk) 04:56, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
Comment
I read the whole article and thought - wow that must have been an ugly episode of american TV. Then I actually watched the whole ting on YouTube.com and ... errrr. What's all the fuss about?! The show is nothing else than great. Great entertainment, many good jokes and everything. Why do you think did the audience laugh throughout the whole episode? Everyone was having fun. Well I was laughing alot too. rigelt 02:20, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- You must have watched the wrong interview - in the one referenced here, the audience gets tired of her and wants her to leave because she is being crude and obnoxious. 72.144.198.53 19:21, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Wow, this is really a very good article. Everyking 2 July 2005 15:36 (UTC)
Well, i mean a subject of article, not the article itself. Vorash 5 July 2005 19:00 (UTC)
Periodically vs Always
The article states that Madonna was angry at Letterman who periodically made jokes about her, but that's not true. Her point was that he makes 'em always, so I changed that line.
Title
I think that this is a well-written article, worthy of an entry on Wikipedia. However, I do not agree with the title of the article. It is only about _one_ particular episode of the David Letterman show, and as such it should make reference of the date when the episode originally aired. It is not specific enough.

- But this way it is open to include more information from her other appearances on the show. Bisco 07:34, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
Marijuana reference
According to this marijuana slang list both the terms "Endo" and "Indo" are used for marijuana. I don't have a recording of the show. So what term did she really use? Bisco 13:53, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
The use of the F-word
I found a source on the reference section, which links to the uncensored dialogue of that infamous show, and I counted that Madonna used the F-word fourteen times, not thirteen. 86.101.211.226 21:31, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Question
How come this article makes no mention of the likely event that caused Madonna to act such that she did? Link. Letterman made a rather crude joke about Modonna before she came out and sparked the entire incident. Alyeska (talk) 19:38, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Dead Links
Most of the sources appear to be dead links, and all but 2 of the youtube videos have been taken down. Maybe you should select different sources, since it looks like this article may (unfortunately) be in for a rewrite or deletion anyway? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Some Guy197 (talk • contribs) 00:52, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
Background appears skimpy
There must be more background to this whole thing than what has been presented in the article. I followed Letterman fairly religiously from the daytime show up until around the early/mid 1990s. I haven't watched the show all that much since around the time he moved to CBS, but I haven't watched a lot of television in general during those years. Throughout the early 1990s, I distinctly remember that Dave had a series of running gags involving Madonna, which implied that the two had some sort of "special relationship" going, even if it was strictly professional. I understand that this was twenty years ago, but am I the only one who remembers "Charles Kuralt's Sex"? RadioKAOS – Talk to me, Billy 23:39, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
