This morning, The Daily Caller posted a story about an email message radio publicist Sarah Spitz reportedly sent to Journolist, a now-defunct listserv.
"If you were in the presence of a man having a heart attack, how would you respond?" The Daily Caller article began. "As he clutched his chest in desperation and pain, would you call 911? Would you try to save him from dying? Of course you would."
--snip--
I made poorly considered remarks about Rush Limbaugh to what I believed was a private email discussion group from my personal email account. As a publicist, I realize more than anyone that is no excuse for irresponsible behavior. I apologize to anyone I may have offended and I regret these comments greatly; they do not reflect the values by which I conduct my life.

It’s always enlightening when a liberal looter says what they really believe, isn’t it?

So are we to assume she judges every situation on a case-by-case basis? God has a great sense of humor. She should make sure she is healthy.

Sorry. Insincere ... and she did not really apologize TO Rush. She’s having to apologize because she got caught, NOT because the realized the error of her ways.

She’s lying about her values. This woman would stab anyone in the back for the slightest advantage.

She's only sorry that she was exposed as the slimy liberal that she is. What a mealymouthed “apology”. Go spew your idiocy to someone who cares, loser.

So when is someone at NPR getting fired? Isn’t this what they require for anyone else making mistakes? They demand a sacrificial lamb from everyone else—where’s theirs?
To: rightwingintelligentsia
Its not only Rush she needs to apologize to. She needs to apologize to the American public for misleading and lying to us.
