Yesterday, FTVLive told you how WLBT Anchor Barbie Bassett, while doing crosstalk with a Black Reporter and says “I know your mother or your GRANDMAMMY has got….”

For background, slave children called their mother mammy and their grandmother was called grandmammy.

The fact that Bassett did this on the newscast was head-shaking, to say the least.

I stopped by Bassett’s Twitter page on Monday afternoon to see if she had addressed her comments or posted any kind of apology.

I did not find any reference to her comments on her main Twitter page (I didn’t see any mention on her Facebook).

But, when I clicked on the Tweet and Replies link, I saw that a number of people brought up her comments and Bassett did reply with an apology to those people.

THis was her reply to someone that has since deleted their post:

After FTVLive posted the story on Monday, the station did address her comments on the newscast and included a pre-recorded message from Bassett in which she got emotional.
