Will anyone at MSNBC apologize for comments involving Andrea Mitchell by 9/15/08?

Settled as No

I think it was Tom Brokaw who said that Andrea Mitchell was braver than John McCain for braving all of the balloons dropped on the convention floor. I believe it was also Tom who called the reporter: Andrea "Boom Boom" Mitchell. That is pretty ridiculous.


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source.
