[RFE/RL] A producer for an American television sitcom that appears to make a joke about the 1995 Srebrenica massacre has apologized, saying the show was not aware of the reference.| I almost believe that -- the producers and writers very likely went to the same fine schools as all those MSM foreign affairs journalists that Ben Rhodes mocked... |
In a statement, the show's executive producer, Bob Daily said, "We were unaware of any connection to the terrible tragedy in Srebrenica. We would never intentionally disrespect or make light of such an event and sincerely apologize to anyone we may have offended."
"Saying, 'Let's go visit that new Serbian restaurant, The Taste of Srebrenica,' is analogous to saying something as horrendous as: 'Let's go visit that new German restaurant, The Taste of Auschwitz,'" the Congress of North American Bosniaks, which represents migrants and refugees from the region, said in an open letter.
