NBC Sitcom Star's Dirty Palin Joke Prompts Quick Apology

USA Today:

TNT wasted no time apologizing for Tracy Morgan's suggestive comments about Sarah Palin on Thursday night. Morgan, star of NBC's 30 Rock sitcom, said during an appearance on TNT's Inside the NBA that he fantasized about the former U.S. vice presidential candidate and Alaska Governor. TNT's Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith laughed nervously while Ernie Johnson quickly tried to change the subject.

"It's unfortunate Mr. Morgan showed a lack of judgment on our air with his inappropriate comments," said Turner spokesman Jeff Pomeroy in a statement.
