Robert Novak Watch: Apologizes

Robert Novak has apologized for swearing on CNN.

Robert Novak apologized Friday for swearing on the air and walking off a CNN set, but said it had nothing to do with the federal probe sparked by his revelation of a
CIA officer’s name in a 2003 column.

“I apologize for my conduct and I’m sorry I did it,” he said in an interview.

CNN has pulled him off the air indefinitely. Novak said “I’ll follow their guidance” on when he returns.

CNN correspondent Ed Henry said afterward that he had been about to ask Novak about his role in the investigation of the leak of Valerie Plame’s identity, which Novak has repeatedly refused to comment on aside from some references in his column.

“That had nothing to do with it, absolutely nothing,” Novak said. “I was sorry he said that.”

Boy, alot of media play while the Air America Scandel lingers………
