A poor choice of costume? 

From The Fixins Bar:

I like this headline because of the quotes around 'sorry' -- as though Yahoo news isn't really buying it at all. You kind of picture them doing the finger air quotes thing.

Prince Harry 'sorry' for wearing Nazi costume

LONDON (AFP) - Britain's Prince Harry apologized after he was pictured on the front page of The Sun newspaper in a Nazi soldier's uniform which he wore to a fancy dress party.

Thursday's edition of the Sun features Prince Harry, younger son of Britain's Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, wearing the uniform with an armband showing a swastika, emblem of the Nazi Party.

A spokeswoman for the royal family who was contacted by AFP read a statement of apology.

"I am very sorry if I caused any offense or embarrassment to anyone. It was a poor choice of costume and I apologize," Prince Harry said in the statement.

Oh, and the update: CNN continues to ask the tough questions in their website polls.
