Three days after one of its highest-profile news anchors played manipulated video that made Mitt Romney appear out of touch with everyday voters, NBC officials seem content to let the controversy die down without an apology or explanation.

In reality, he was facetiously comparing the tech-savvy private sector to the clumsy government bureaucracy.
