El Pais More Mature Than CBS

The Spanish newspaper has apologized for its repellent email advertising campaign mocking 9/11.

Barcepundit gives them “credit where credit is due” for an editorial today in which “they have quite harsh words for the initiative and they announce they have launched an internal investigation to establish responsibilities about it, and have given instructions to the email marketing company to send a message apologizing to all 50,000 recipients of the original advertisement.”

MEANWHILE: Bob Dole (who better?) has the best explanation so far for the current media conflagration. As he told Fox News Radio: “Dan Rather does not like anyone in the Bush family that I know of, unless maybe one of the dogs.”
