I’m pretty firmly on record as a Bush guy, but that doesn’t mean the Kerry campaign doesn’t have its classier moments. As noted in this USA Today article, a Fox News reporter recently erred tremendously and allowed a satirical piece of creative writing end up on the network’s website as hard news.
Fox has since apologized, and the reporter has been reprimanded.
This would have been an easy moment for the Kerry camp to deride Fox as a wantonly conservative news channel with clearly biased reporters (the satire was less than flattering of Mr. Kerry).

Rather, though, the campaign simply accepted the apology and noted that is appreciates the ease with which Fox News admits its mistakes.
If only CBS News were as dignified, indeed.
