MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry apologizes for mocking Mitt Romney’s black grandson
MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry apologized Tuesday for openly mocking Former GOP Presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s black grandson.
A Christmas card featuring Romney with his grandchildren, shows him holding Keiran, who is the adopted infant of Romney’s son Ben.
The card was among items featured in the “2013: The year in political ridiculousness” segment on the show Sunday.
After the image flashed on the screen during the show, actress Pia Glenn broke out in song, singing, “One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just isn’t the same.” […] The host called the baby “gorgeous” and revealed her pipe dream for 2040 would be the wedding between Kieran Romney and North West, the infant daughter of rapper Kanye West and celebutante Kim Kardashian.
The apology came after Sarah Palin posted her disdain for the comments on her Facebook page writing that, “This latest attack from the Left is despicable.”
Hours later, Harris-Perry tweeted an apology soon after.
