As soon as he felt himself sinking in a quicksand of his own making, he began to SPIN trying to get out. Saying he never did more than "raise questions" about Shawn's failure to get away from Devlin.
Any of us, including myself, who saw and heard his first attack on Shawn, knows he had already passed judgement against the boy. A fact that he has never admitted, just as you point out. A time or two or three afterwards he said, if I'm wrong, I'll admit it. But he has changed his story so that now he claims never to have done anything he need apologize for.
One of the worst performances in the history of tv punditry...
I had ony read about his first pronouncements..but I caught his weasel spin explanation..and it was pathetic. Just asking questions like a good reporter? I think not!
the man was doing way more than asking questions. I just got off the phone with my mother who just watched the Oprah show from yesterday. She is now disgusted with BOR and won't listen or watch him again!

You got that right! Quite a lot of spin going on in the "no spin zone"!
It's right up there with the three numbskulls (Doocy, Kilmeade and Carlson) on F&F this morning. In the first hour, they covered this story by once again slamming the family for appearing on Oprah. Got it? People who would otherwise have been very happy to interview the family, (as it's their JOB) slamming the family.
It looks to me like the family didn't grant any interviews to Fox, and I don't blame them. The way FOX handled this case I would NEVER grant an interview to anyone in that network.
I was so hurt and disgusted by BOR's tyrade about this poor little boy. I couldn't believe it. I'm glad some people are posting here about it. That poor kid has been through absolute hell and I'm sure he was afraid to get away. Poor kid.
