Washington, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – Conservative commentator Carlson Tucker, editor-in-chief and founder of the news site The Daily Caller, has apologized to the Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) for an article posted on the site.  It was written by TDC’s managing editor Christopher Bedford.

The article accused AAJA of “concealing” the location of its 2014 Annual National Convention which opens today in Washington, D.C. It claims that the nonprofit journalism organization misled its convention attendees by announcing a downtown D.C. venue when in fact, the convention hotel is in Chinatown.

Tucker said he has placed Bedford on administrative leave  pending a full investigation of what happened.

“Bedford intended his piece to be a guest blog post in The Adobo Chronicles, but erroneously posted it on The Daily Caller,” Tucker said.  “We are a respectable, legitimate news organization and the publication of a bad satire has hurt our reputation,” he added.

The Adobo Chronicles was unsuccessful in reaching AAJA President Paul Chung by cell phone for his reaction to Tucker’s apology. Apparently, wi-fi access in the basement of the convention hotel is, at most, spotty.
