"Good Morning America" co-anchor Amy Robach has apologized for saying "colored people" on Monday's broadcast of the ABC program. Another said Robach "gets a pass this time" but vowed to ditch "GMA" for a rival morning program if it happened again. After the broadcast, Robach released a statement explaining she had meant to say "people of color." "We no longer use the term colored people, although once upon a time that was a term in use," McDowell said. If you are referring specifically to African-Americans, people will frequently be specific and refer to us as African-Americans."
