He apologizes to his family, and commits himself to regaining the public trust. But he did something that seemed very smart to me. He gave an audio statement. That means the networks can't run the clip of him apologizing as easily. Obviously, they can run the clip over stock footage, but it forecloses, for now, the possibility of an iconic image emerging from this. Update: Okay, it appears MSNBC was just screwing with me, and didn't have their camera set up. He gave his statement publicly. Dragged hid stunned looking wife out, too, which struck me as particularly unclassy. I will say that Tucker Carlson is giving great commentary on the whole matter, though. Lots of contemptuous outrage at all the faux-outrage.
