OPM Publicly Attacked Journalist, But Privately Apologized, Says His Office Won't Do It Again

And last month, you saw the Office of the Prime Minister issue a scathing press release making a personal attack on 7News Director Jules Vasquez. Since then, the PM has called Vasquez and made a private apology. But it seems he's keeping that between them. We asked him about it today.

Courtney Menzies:
"Do you still stand by what was in that release?"

John Briceno, Prime Minister
"I called Mr Vasquez personally a few days afterwards and you can speak with him. But I could assure you that any such release like that will never happen under my office again."
