Watch Kelly Tilghman Mime Her Apology

Today's technical snafu ought to really help relations between The Golf Channel and CBS, who was handling the production of TGC's opening round Buick Invitational telecast...

I recorded it and got the same result -- opening words not audible.

This broadcast was Closed-Captioned so I re-cued it and enabled the CC feature. Those words were missing there, too -- the CC picked up the parts that came over on the audio.

Any lip readers out there? Would be nice if TGC sent out the full text to the same email media list that they send all those announcements about the Big Break shows.

But that she's now publicly apologized, can society's self-appointed PC Police please let this thing go?

I truly cannot believe Golf Channel is so incompetent.

Hello I'm Kelly Tilghman:

Over the last 2 weeks, I have been enjoying the sun and updating my resume. As you know, the stupidity of management at the golf channel was looking for a scapegoat so his highness and lordship, Tiger Woods would not be upset. As a result, I was off, entertaining offers, talking with a team of lawyers and writing a book. I intend to cash in on this stupid overblown event and hope that you will continue to watch the hours of non sense the golf channel presents, especially the paid programs for worthless items.

Sincerely,

Kelly

Golf Channel website now has the full audio & video of the Tilghman apology. (see Headlines/Video/Tilghman Apologizes To Viewers).
What's missing is any sense of sincerity.

Well, this is a good start to the year

I don't get the GC, but saw the video.

She sure has a deep voice.
