Rupert Murdoch Apologizes

On Feb. 24, Rupert Murdoch, chairman of the New York Post, issued an apology for the controversial cartoon that many people found racist.

According to a CNN article, Murdoch responded saying "I can assure you -- without a doubt -- that the only intent of the cartoon was to mock a badly written piece of legislation."

Despite the fact that the NAACP has called for the cartoons creator to be fired, Murdoch made no mention of such a motion.

Although it was an apology that needed to be made, it seems to me as though it was done for public relations purposes rather than for true regret of poor judgement.

If he really was apologetic, he would have fired the cartoonist, or perhaps the editor who neglected to see the racist correlation.
