US elections: Fox forced to apologise to Obama for third time in two weeks | World news | guardian.co.uk: "Rupert Murdoch's Fox News television station has been forced to apologise to Barack Obama for the third time in a fortnight after screening a racially tinged caption referring to his wife Michelle as his 'baby mama'.

Bill Shine, senior vice president of programming at Fox, said in a statement on Thursday that a producer 'exercised poor judgment' during the segment.

The statement came as Obama established a website to help counter what he referred to as smears and rumours."
