| Description | The Rev. Jesse Jackson apologized Wednesday for "crude and hurtful" remarks he made against Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama after finishing an interview with a Fox News correspondent.
Jackson told CNN's "Situation Room" that a "hot" microphone caught a part of conversation he was having with a fellow guest at the studio.
He said he made a comment about Obama "speaking down black people" followed by a crude remark.
Jackson's apology came a few hours before Fox News planned to air the remarks. |
