After a female reporter from RealClearPolitics asked Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) about a paternity test showing the daughter he reunited with late in life wasn’t actually his, Cohen reportedly replied, “You’re very attractive but I’m not talking about it.”
The RealClearPolitics reporter, Caitlin Huey-Burns, later tweeted that Cohen offered an apology for the comment.
In response to previous tweet, Rep. Cohen came up to me to apologize if he offended. Said its a difficult&personal time for him right now.
