OUR HUMBLEST APOLOGIES (parody!)

Recently, NBC was forced to apologize to Congresswoman Michele Bachmann after it was found that during her introduction on the network's "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," house band The Roots played an instrumental version of a song called "Lyin' Ass Bitch." Rep. Bachmann's discovery of this sneaky insult has led other Republican candidates to more closely examine the music that accompanied their appearances on talk shows.  Here are the letters of apology from the networks responsible.


To: Mitt Romney
From: Les Moonves, Chairman, CBS

Dear Gov. Romney,

Please accept our apologies for the music that was played during your entrance on "The Late Show with David Letterman." The CBS Orchestra's choice of Styx's "Mr. Roboto" was meant to kick off your fantastic interview performance with an upbeat, bouncy melody.  It in no way was meant to reflect any criticism of your personality on the campaign trail.  On behalf of myself, Dave, music director Paul Shaffer, and all of us at CBS, I hope you will accept our humblest apologies.

Sincerely,
Les Moonves
