Your claim:

"Sanders reply. Agrees with apology about tone
in the videos. That is it. No more. Nothing about anything else Richardson said, or the fact PP was being mercilessly attacked or that it was all a lie. Just that an apology for the tone on the video was correct. "

***

Here's what Bernie actually said:

"They're not selling fetuses," Sanders said. "And this is something, I think the tone of that discussion was unfortunate. But if the question is, do I support Planned Parenthood? I absolutely do. ... I will defend Planned Parenthood. I think a lot of this attack, to be honest with you, comes from people who simply do not believe that a woman should have a right to control her own body. That's the motive."

It's a good thing we can use Google and sea beyond your claim.
