TBS has issued its own statement regarding its swelling Samantha Bee controversy, which was ignited Tuesday night when the Full Frontal host referred to Ivanka Trump as the c-word. Bee has since apologized for the crack.

“Samantha Bee has taken the right action in apologizing for the vile and inappropriate language she used about Ivanka Trump last night,” the network said. “Those words should not have been aired. It was our mistake too, and we regret it.”
