The Imperial Press Deigns to Apologize

Not for anything substantive, of course, but we peasants must be grateful for the crumbs we receive.

Today Show Face Matt Lauer graciously provides this absolutely classic example of "do what I say and never mind what I do":

(AP) BOSTON After challenging New Jersey Gov. Jon S. Corzine for not wearing a seat belt, "Today" show co-host Matt Lauer apologized Wednesday for an interview with Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney in which neither man wore a seat belt while driving through New Hampshire.

Apparently, someone pointed out the hypocrisy of an NBC promo in which Lauer criticizes Corzine for not wearing his seatbelt, otherwise, no mention of this would have been made by Lauer.
