    Apologizing for calling minimum wage workers "dumb and incompetent," Michelli claims his remark was "rhetorical" - Colorado Media Matters
    Summary: On News Radio 740 KVOR, host Joseph Michelli apologized for his earlier remark that those who work for the minimum wage are 'dumb and incompetent.' The statement followed an apology he emailed to Colorado Media Matters, in which he called the original remarks a 'point I cloddishly tried to make.' In his on-air apology, Michelli said he meant the remark as a 'sort of rhetorical question' that posited a viewpoint he did not necessarily hold.
