UNREAL! CNN Contributor Brian Karem Apologizes for NOT Being Even More Rude When Attacking Pres. Trump

On Thursday, CNN analyst and Playboy reporter, Brian Karem had an absolute meltdown during the White House press briefing where he screamed at Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders about the administration’s immigration policies. The rage-fueled outburst was lauded by some and condemned by many, but during an appearance on CNN’s Reliable Sources on Sunday, host Brian Stelter pushed back and asked Karem if he wanted to apologize. Of course, the Karem refused and dug in his heels. The first time Karem was invited onto CNN to discuss what happened, host Erin Burnett sat back and let Karem defend his tantrum. But on Sunday’s appearance, Stelter provided a stiffer rebuttal to the behavior. “Well Brian, this brings us to your outburst at Thursday's briefing. I don’t know if you’d call it an outburst but I would,” Stelter said. “What outburst was that,” Karem sarcastically responded with a slight laugh and a raised eyebrow.



“Do you regret losing your cool, Brian,” Stelter asked after playing a clip of the heated exchange. Karem had an apology, but it wasn’t too Sanders. It was for not being more antagonistic toward Trump administration on Thursday and in the past: “I have an apology to make. I apologize to every human being who has had to suffer, who have less -- who has less than I do. And I did not come to the table sooner. I'm sorry to those people for waiting so long and holding my temper. I am sorry that I am extremely angry with this administration that has lied to me, continues to lie to me. I'm sorry as a reporter that for so long I thought that the idea was to -- I was struggling so hard to do my job, I forgot my job is to comfort the afflicted, afflict the comfortable and ask questions for those who have no voice.” (…)
