Meredith McIver, an in-house staff writer from the Trump Organization, has released a statement regarding Melania Trump's speech from July 18th, 2016, at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio.
She said; "This was my mistake and I feel terrible for the chaos I have caused Melania and the Trumps, as well as to Mrs. Obama. No harm was meant," she wrote.
Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume weighed in on Outnumbered immediately after the statement came out, saying that the White House and presidential campaigns have meticulous processes in place to make sure this type of thing doesn't happen.
He pointed out the huge disparity in spending and staffing between Trump's campaign and Hillary Clinton's operation.
"This speech was written by somebody who is not accustomed to writing political speeches at this level. What you see here is what you get and that there is a price for bare-bones, low-cost operations," said Hume.
Meantime, Trump hit out at the media on Twitter today for focusing attention on the plagiarism controversy.
