by Steve Krakauer on Aug 3, 2010 • No Comments

Some anchors take a day or two to apologize for a mistake. For technology-savvy Greta Van Susteren, it took about 40 minutes to take to her blog and apologize profusely for a five-second mistake (that she technically wasn't involved in).What happened?
