Origin of the General Top Ten List?
The Origin Of The Top 10 List, The Internet’s Informational Poster Boy David Letterman is sometime cited as the father of the top 10 list in Internet blogs. Perhaps we need more infos about this. Komitsuki (talk) 00:41, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
According to Steve O'Donnell, the Top Ten List was an "almost simultaneous inspiration arriving from staffers Jim Downey, Randy Cohen and Robert “Morty” Morton — largely prompted by the ridiculous 'eligible bachelor' lists in a local New York paper that included the 84-year-old Bill Paley. 'Why, we can put such nonsense together ourselves!' we exclaimed. And we did."[1] Reeg99 (talk) 05:43, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
