Toned-Down?

L’Shana Tovah, and let’s talk about something near and dear to Fox News’s heart: the evil Canadian press.

CBC has apologized for an opinion piece:

In the article, Mallick said Palin appeals to “the white trash vote” with her “toned-down version of the porn actress look.”

To make matters worse, the apology includes a glorious sentence:

[T]here is no factual basis for a broad-scale conclusion about the sexual adequacy of Republican men.

Glad we got that straight. UPDATE: Noni, in comments, notes that the Ombudsman didn’t do his research, the family-safe conclusion of which is:

Perhaps Heather Mallick simply chose the wrong terminology, inadequate seems to indicate they can’t perform the sexual act. When it comes to our dear conservative friends, that clearly isn’t the case. They sure can perform the sexual act, [not family-friendly but clean list omitted]…

To be more accurate, Mallick might have opted for a term like, corrupt sexual hypocrites. Surely the CBC Ombudsman in investigating the claims against Heather Mallick and her ever so naughty article actually did the 0.31 seconds of research it took me and Google to come up with a few “facts”.

Maybe Bob Dole’s job is safe after all.
