Anybody Holding Their Breath for an Apology from NY Post to the Two Guys it Hung Today on Its Cover?

I'm not expecting them to do anything - like apologize for turning the dogs loose on two innocent people. But they should print a full front page apologizing and making clear to all the people who might do them harm that those guys were not involved.

They're probably in hiding right now. I would be.

Post editor Col Allan defended the newspaper's decision to run its cover and the story, telling The Huffington Post's Michael Calderone: "We stand by our story. The image was emailed to law enforcement agencies yesterday afternoon "seeking information about these men, as our story reported. We did not identify them as suspects."

We just called them "Bag Men" relative to a crime where bags exploded. Surely no one could jump to conclusions from that.
