He did a pretty good job apologizing on Twitter...

...but then went on Howard Stern and said "that you would have to have Down Syndrome to not feel sorry" for victims of abuse. On The View Norm said the comment was "unforgivable". |
With Norm you have to wonder if he is doing it on purpose.
I only found out that he had a new show because of the media backlash over his controversial comments.
The controversial comments are better publicity than the publicity circuit he is doing.
