Letterman producer defends host to women’s group

The executive producer of the “Late Show with David Letterman” defended the company’s treatment of women in response to a letter from the president of the National Organization for Women, who said the star’s actions created a “toxic environment.” “Since we started as a company in 1993, we have taken very seriously the issues you raise regarding respect for women in the workplace,” Rob Burnett wrote in a letter dated October 15.
