Martha Stewart addresses backlash over a Halloween costume she wore as a homeless person and responds to criticism by apologizing for what it represented. In interviews, she frames the situation as an error in judgment and acknowledges the social issues tied to the theme.
Across coverage, outlets emphasize different parts of her response. NBC News highlights Stewart’s statement that she is aware of the social problems involved, but that she “made a mistake,” and notes she apologizes for earlier comments connected to the costume change. The Oregonian also spotlights her reaction, describing a sit-down conversation with TODAY without adding further details beyond that interview setting.
