Ron Fournier, the Washington Bureau Chief of the AP, issued a statement late last night to his media company explaining his correspondence with Karl Rove in a 2004 e-mail excerpted in the House Oversight Committee's report on the death of Pat Tillman:

"I was an AP political reporter at the time of the 2004 e-mail exchange, and was interacting with a source, a top aide to the president, in the course of following an important and compelling story. I regret the breezy nature of the correspondence."
