The report, with sensational and lurid claims of "young girls" being "raped" and "gay gangs" running wild in the nation's capitol, were enough to get the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) to urge its membership to demand the O'Reilly honor his "no spin zone" motto and make an on-air retraction, or else present concrete facts for the claims made on air.

The Southern Poverty Law Center also became involved, rebutting the claims made on O'Reilly's program in a meticulus, point-by-point fashion.

I can't see O'Reilly apologizing in any significant way.  I get a kick out of his "no spin zone".  Perhaps that's where everything lands after it has been spun!
