Via CNN: TRENDING: Vitter sorry for Maddow comment
“Regarding my remark during a radio conversation today, I apologize,” Vitter wrote in a letter to Maddow. “The hosts made their comment and I obviously chimed in. While we do not usually agree on the issues, I do not think you deserved that comment.”
I discussed the event here: Stay Classy, Senator Vitter.
