Yes , but you accused him of lying. So, who's the more irresponsible here? What you failed to say is that O'Donnell was very careful to make sure his audience understood that his sources' statement was unconfirmed and might not be true. The reality is that reporting unconfirmed rumor, even with a caveat, proved to be unacceptable to MSNBC's management and inconsistent with their policy. Something that you should be applauding. And we, in fact, do not know if O'Donnell's source is correct! I have my doubts that what was claimed by his source is true, and I think it likely O'Donnell was sucker punched. But we'll see, won't we. O'Donnell did the right thing and admitted he had spoken to soon and violated Network policy. Now are you going to do the right thing and admit you were wrong to accuse him of lying?
I am only supporting him in light of your false statement about him. He was wrong and had the integrity to admit it. You have an opportunity to attempt to regain your own integrity, why not take advantage of it? Once a person's integrity is lost, it's extremely difficult regain. A sure way to lose your integrity is to cling to a lie even after someone calls you on it...
Yeh sure. Maybe I will send out some tweets saying that you have been taken into custody for child molestation. Then the next day I say, oh my bad I did not get further confirmation- after it has been on national news- and I am not saying that it is untrue, just that is unverified as this time. Howz that work for ya white boy? This is the type of scenario where you say the Lawrence clown "had integrity." Idiots. both of you.
