Fifth-column KSDK's apology would be more believable if the station manager and reporter resigned (or ate a bullet) in contrition. Otherwise, the media skanks' apology is equivalent to used toilet paper.
Watched the oldie Anatomy of a Murder last evening. J. Stewart playing the defense attorney asks a question which is so far over the line regarding relevancy to cause the wife of the defendant to ask: the judge said for the jury to disregard the question and for the info to be removed from the record, does that mean they will not consider it? He said NO.
