On Sunday’s program, we showed a photo of Governor Romney holding his adopted grandson, who is African-American.
The intent of featuring the photo was to celebrate it— I often speak to the issue of the increasingly diverse American family.Whatever the intent, the segment proceeded in an unexpected way that was offensive. Without reservation or qualification, I apologize to the Romney family and to all families built on loving transracial adoptions.
I am sorry. Without reservation or qualification. I apologize to the Romney family. #MHPapology

I work by guiding principle that those who offend do not have the right to tell those they hurt that they r wrong for hurting. #MHPapology
