Follow-up to My Posting on the MSNBC "Interview" of Mark Williams

In today's posting about the Dylan Ratigan rant against Tea-Party leader Mark Williams, I wrote about Williams' comment about an NBC reporter in Sacramento who purportedly made "anti-Semitic" comments in a speech at Sacramento State University and was later promoted to anchor.

After checking into the incident, which happened in 2007, from what I can see, it doesn't seem to be that big a deal. From what I have been able to read, the remarks were probably insensitive, but probabaly not meant to be insulting. (The person apologized.)

I have added the below aterisked paragraph to that posting:

* I checked into that Sacramento State University issue, and based on what I see, I don't think it is that big a deal. The remarks were probably insensitive, but probably not meant to be insulting-at least from what I was able to find.
