We at Crystal News Network apologize for any misunderstanding our latest broadcast may have caused. Our statements about our staff achieving "Wings" was not meant to imply the pegasus members of our staff were not capable of ascension, nor was it meant to imply that about pegasi in general. We at CNN firmly believe in equality amongst all ponies, and believe that all have an equal chance to ascend with the right effort. Even our beloved Princess Mi Amore Cadenza was born a Pegasus, and none of us here are ignorant enough to disregard her and her accomplishments. We at CNN will not tolerate discrimination of any kind, under any circumstances, whether it be to a fellow pony or to anyone else. If anyone was offended by our latest broadcast, we deeply apologize for any perceived discrimination.
And now, we have face-to-face with one of the biggest names in The Crystal Empire! She's smart! She's beautiful! And she's oh so charismatic! Mares and Gentlecolts, this is Opal Sunset!
*applause*
