Return... because its the Ap report and reporter that I want to nail. I came in to the news where he apologized but nailed AP for it.

Nah, not today. Like I said, I've seen him reading live before and stop mid-report and not complete the sentence because he thought it was inappropriate. Not sure where he left his head this a.m. The apology should have been immediate. My guess is it came following a flood of complaints. fwiw, I think he would like to take it back but I would have liked to have seen an immediate apology. You know, recognition that what he just said was completely out of line. I knew it. So did a lot of other good folks. An immediate apology would have appeared more genuine to me rather than later.
