I already find this very exhausting, but in the interest of fairness, here we go.
I’m still not sure what sparked this. Weir was upset that he wasn’t asked to write for a show that was shit, according to him?
As a Canadian, I’ not going to rate that highly as an apology.
It’s rather a sorry, not sorry, let’s be buds and talk some (unspecified) time
But it may play differently in a US cultural setting.
It’s interesting that he felt he needed to do that though.
It’s the mealy-mouthed half-apology of someone who was caught talking out of school. It’ll probably be enough for the whole thing to blow over.
One suspects that the communications pros at Amazon-MGM decided that they couldn’t let this story have legs, informed Weir’s agent that he had to make some immediate effort to quell the controversy.
