On Melissa Harris-Perry's show on MSNBC she showed a picture of the Romney family Christmas card: a photo of the family and grandchildren. In the picture was Kiernan, an african child adopted by Romney's son. Melissa jokes that Kieran is a "token" attempt at diversity. Melissa later releases the statement "Showing the photo in that context, that segment, was poor judgment,"
she said. "Adults who enter into public life, implicitly consent to
having less privacy, but their families, especially their children,
should not be treated callously or thoughtlessly. My intention was not
malicious, but I broke the ground rule that families are off-limits. For
that I am sorry.". Romney says “I recognize that people make mistakes," Romney said on "Fox News
Sunday." “And the folks at MSNBC made a big mistake. They’ve apologized
for it. And that’s all you can ask for.” Read more here.
