DUBLIN (AP) — Financial news publisher Forbes says it's apologizing to
Ireland's president for inaccurately describing him as gay in an online
article.
The New York-based media company pulled the offending piece from its website
Wednesday and replaced it with an apology to readers and, indirectly, to
President Michael D. Higgins.
"Forbes will be issuing an apology to President Higgins in a separate
correspondence," the publisher said.
Higgins, who has a wife and four children, offered no immediate response.
The article, posted Tuesday by Ireland-based blogger David Monagan, called
Higgins an "acknowledged homosexual."
Higgins, a poet and intellectual who supports gay rights, was elected as
Ireland's ceremonial head of state in 2011. One candidate he defeated, Sen.
David Norris, is Ireland's foremost campaigner for gay rights and famously
open about his homosexuality. | I******I
