NBC News’ president Steve Capus apologized to NBC affiliates Sept. 12  for NBC’s “editorial call resulting in the September 11 moment of silence not being seen,” the New York Times reported.

Instead, NBC aired “an interview with Kris Jenner, the matriarch of the tabloid-darling Kardashian clan, who was discussing her breast augmentation.”

NBC stood by its decision to not “observe” the moment of silence, which the Times noted the network has “only once — on the 10-year anniversary last year — since 2006” done so.
