Apology Central

15 September 2009

Earlier this month a new section debuted on News N Shit. Apology Central is a live chronicle of the pervasive and ever-growing Culture of Apology.

The section now appears every day in the right hand column of the site's front page, just below What's Happening Now and above the News N Shit Picks section.

Now each time you visit News N Shit, you can check this section for an instant roundup of all the latest public apologies that are making news in America and around the world.

We created Apology Central after finding that so many of the stories we selected each day for our Picks dealt with people being forced to apologize for saying the wrong thing, doing something someone didn't like, or generally being caught with their pants down - sometimes figuratively, sometimes literally. Football players, politicians, newspapers, celebrities - they just never seem to be able to do anything interesting anymore without having to apologize for it later.

We hope you'll enjoy this new section. If it is not to your liking, please accept our sincerest apologies.
