Yeah, that's definitely a "nature of the beast" whore thing to do. It isn't apologizing because you're contrite. It is apologizing because you want the money. However, I can acknowledge Pariah's point as being somewhat true. Had he left is to vague insinuation then we probably wouldn't be having this conversation. But, he let words slip. Then, rather than apologizing quickly and moving on, he decided to double down with the "post the videos on the internet" stuff. He could've gotten ahead of this and done damage control by Thursday morning. But, he let hubris get the best of him.

All this to say that we take our media pundits just a little too seriously in this country.
