Jack Cafferty prepares for an appearance on CNN`s `The Situation Room,` Wednesday, June 21, 2006, at CNN`s New York headquarters. China on Thursday April 17, 2008 snubbed an apology from CNN over remarks by one Cafferty as a wave of verbal assaults on foreign media raised concerns over coverage at this summer`s Beijing Olympics. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu rejected CNN`s explanation that commentator Jack Cafferty was referring to China`s leaders — not the Chinese people — when he described them as `goons and thugs.` CNN said it apologized to anyone who thought otherwise.
