Unhappy birthday dear Ronny,

Another Reagan hater is former Gore adviser Donna Brazile. On
Sunday's "Late Edition," CNN's Wolf Blitzer asked her to comment on
Reagan's legacy:

BRAZILE: Big spender, deficit spender. And that's what
he'll be remembered as.

BLITZER: That's not very nice. He's going to be 91 years
old. He's got his birthday coming up. Say something nice
about him.

(LAUGHTER)

We want to hear something nice about Ronald Reagan.

BRAZILE: I'll pass.

Should we give Big Media the benefit of the doubt and call this a blunder and not an editorial comment about a black Republican?

MSNBC Apologizes for Misspelling

NEW YORK (AP)--MSNBC has apologized for a typographical error that turned
the name of an interview subject into a racial slur.

The network on Monday aired an interview about the Enron case with
Republican consultant Niger Innis. The onscreen graphic identifying Innis, who
is black, had an extra ``g'' in his first name.

Shortly after it appeared, correspondent Gregg Jarrett offered Innis a ``profuse
apology.''

``Oh, God, I thought you guys thought I was a rapper or something,'' Innis
replied. ``Media bias continues. Just kidding. It's not the first time it's
happened, but hopefully it's the last.''

It was strictly a typographical mistake, network spokesman Mark O'Connor
said Thursday. He wouldn't say whether any disciplinary action was taken
against the person who made the blunder.
