This story is in Yahoo news. Obviously Letterman is not live, but I think the following quote sounds weird, since it’s not Thursday night, yet. Why didn’t they say “today” or “this afternoon?” Can’t wait to watch, by the way!
“John McCain appeared on CBS’ “Late Show with David Letterman” Thursday night, telling the host “I screwed up” by canceling an earlier appearance on the show.”

So, what time is the show taped?
