In all fairness, a clarification was needed. A lot of people got the wrong end of the stick (myself included), and the record is now straight. I'm ticked the original explanation was worded the way it was as it was meant more to deflect the inevitable criticism over the pay, but this statement clears that all up, so let's get on with it.
I dunno. Is "regret" an apology? Does he regret getting caught lying? Does he "regret" getting caught shitting on staff?

He regrets "any negative inference"? What is that? No apology to staff?

This isn't so much about clarifying the origins of Chapman's raise as it is about the mayor's penchant for poor communication (perhaps even out right lying and getting busted), and also throwing staff under the bus.

Shameful anyway you slice it. This is not good.
