Sunday on CNN’s  “Newsroom,’ anchor Fredricka Whitfield said she “misspoke” when calling the attack on Dallas Police Headquarters “very courageous and brave” on Saturday’s show.

Whitfield said, “Yesterday during a segment on Dallas Police Department attack I used the words courageous and brave when discussing the gunman. I misspoke. And in no way believe the gunman was courageous nor brave. And I’ll be right back.”
