Longtime Washington Post TV critic Tom Shales wishes to apologize to the editors he has vilified over the years: "I do recall sometimes feeling frustrated in my kill-the-editor campaign by the fact that every time I wanted to take a flame thrower to the copy desk, one of its tireless drones would find a hideous error I’d made in a story and save my ass." He praises one editor by name — and misspells his first and last names (now corrected).
