MSNBC anchor Martin Bashir resigns after his on-air November 15 vile comment about former Alaska governor Sarah Palin. He released the following statement: “After making an on-air apology, I asked for permission to take some additional time out around the Thanksgiving holiday.


Upon further reflection, and after meeting with the President of MSNBC, I have tendered my resignation. It is my sincere hope that all of my colleagues, at this special network, will be allowed to focus on the issues that matter without the distraction of myself or my ill-judged comments.


‘I deeply regret what was said, will endeavor to work hard at making constructive contributions in the future and will always have a deep appreciation for our viewers – who are the smartest, most compassionate and discerning of all television audiences.”
