What was his message to the group?

God Bless Steve for making the effort!
However, in this case Scalise was not "making the effort." He claims he simply didn't know. Of course, he also claims to have made an error in judgement, which calls to question the veracity of his claims to not have known.

I think he fell into the trap of accepting the premise of the question. A conservative should never assume that the media is being anything but dishonest.
I do think the veracity of his claim is ok - he can say he doesn't recall speaking to that group, but if he did, the 'mistake' was in not properly vetting the venue prior to his appearance.
This whole thing is another piece of yellow journalism that is the hallmark of the media for the past fifty years.
