“Anyone reading Richard’s entire column will see he is just saying that some Americans still have a hard time dealing with interracial marriage," Hiatt said. "I erred in not editing that one sentence more carefully to make sure it could not be misinterpreted."

So he is "just saying" that some Americans are still racists. And somehow the editor thinks a slightly more obtuse way of saying that is all the editing that is needed? I mean, what the fuck is there to "misinterpret"? Cohen admits he is racists, editor says he should have edited to show some Americans are still racist. WTF
