DOES NO ONE EDIT FOX NEWS?

Mistakes undermined message (JASON WHITLOCK, 10/23/09, FoxSports.com)

Let me first apologize to Rush Limbaugh.

Last week in explaining why NFL commissioner Roger Goodell needed to put an end to Limbaugh's latest publicity stunt, I attributed racially insensitive quotes to Limbaugh that I read in two Missouri newspapers, saw on CNN and confirmed through a Google search. Prior to posting the article, I never found a denial of these quotes by Limbaugh, and had no reason to believe those statements were not true.

It was unfair to Limbaugh. And I regret that. I've commented on some of his earlier controversies. I've long been an admirer of his broadcasting skills.


Mr. Limbaugh is an entertainer not a journalist, like his critics who got the facts so wrong.
