David Letterman's nightly Top 10 List is a comic ritual, and one of the reasons viewers tune in the late night host. The Top 10 countdown has poked fun at celebrities, items in the news, and at various professions.
On Friday Aug. 19, it was chiropractic's turn to be lambasted by Letterman. The good news is that they didn't refer to chiropractors in a generic way, but to "bad" chiropractors, and boy are these chiropractors bad.
In a sense we know chiropractic has arrived when it gets this kind of "exposure." So, if you missed it, this may be worth a few good laughs.
