Stephen A. Smith had to apologize this morning over his comments on the Rice incident. Why do the handlers of these people make them apologize for offensive comments? I get that they don't want to tarnish their reputations, but does anyone actually believe them when they apologize for their comments? Seems like a waste of air.

You mean to tell me that that Race Baiting, Egotistical douchebag Stephen A. Smith had to apologize for some dumbshit comment he made on his terrible TV show?

Nice!

I don't disagree. But, that's my point. It's very apparent he is a POS. Why make him apologize? Who thinks that it's sincere?

Rush apologizing to Sandra Fluke was stupid, IMO

There was nothing wrong about what he said

I think this is one of those rare occasions where it was actually his choice to apologize.

He had been getting hammered all weekend and even apologized on Twitter so this one looks real, albeit more polished.

Now whether or not he actually meant it is another story.

The fact that he twittered it doesn't make it more believable to me.

did he at least preface it with "I apologize if I offended anyone"?

Those are my favorite apologies. That's my mom's go to move. That and "I'm sorry you feel that way."

the recent Gary Oldman apology sucked, because aside from the profanity and crudeness... i liked what he had to say.

Somebody somewhere has agreed with every offensive celebrity diatribe.
