Remember when we posted video of WUSA9 reporter, Lindsey Mastis being harassed by MTV’s cameraman? Well, the drama didn’t end there! After lots of hate mail, nasty tweets and blog posts towards cameraman Ryan Romkema, he has now issued an apology for his malicious behavior. Read the letter and Mastis' blog and let us know your opinion on the whole mess below.
Dear Lindsey Mastis,
I would like to extend an apology for my conduct on July 2. My actions on that day were ill advised and an overreaction to the pressures of the moment. Many people were and are excited for "The Real World DC" and the opportunities that lay ahead. A camera instruction was given to document the situation and it was too much. The nation's capital has given a warm welcome to "The Real World DC" and it is our desire to present this great city in the best light possible. I regret my actions that day and hope you will accept this apology. ~Ryan Romkema

Ryan's plea for forgiveness -- in language you know flows from his soul -- reflects all the natural candor of a North Korean prison confession.

Kudos to Lindsey for her incredible professionalism during what must have been an infuriating experience!
