While Fredricka Whitfield clarified her comments on Sunday -- one day after making them --by saying she "misspoke," she never actually apologized.
This led to criticism and calls for her firing by both the Dallas Police Association and Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.
Whitfield state, "I misspoke terribly. I misused those words terribly. And I sincerely apologize for making this statement, and I understand now how offensive it was, and I want to reiterate that in no way do I believe the gunman was courageous or brave. I sincerely apologize."
