re: Oklahoma City News Anchor Compares Her Co-host to a Gorilla

Networks are stupid. They make people apologize because it offended some people. Just let them be honest.

The dude looked uncomfortable up there. If I had to guess, having worked with her for a year and a half, he probably knew she didn't mean anything by it..

They should have let them get on air and she says "yesterday I said something that offended some people. We aired a segment about a baby gorilla. I said that he was cute, kind of like my co-anchor. Some people assumed I was referring to my co-worker as a gorilla because he is black. I can assure you, that was not the case at all. I said the baby gorilla is cute, kind of like my co-anchor, who is cute. I just wanted to clear this up for those who I was referring to the race of my co-anchor.

Then the co-anchor says "As my co-anchor I can assure you she didn't make the comment that she did in away that was racial. I didn't even think nothing of it until people complained, but that's because I know who she is and know her intentions isn't anything cruel spirited"..

Something along those lines... Instead of apologizing. People are idiots.
