Irish tenor to sing for ADL

I love this: Irish tenor Ronan Tynan, who got into hot water after he was reported making a dicey joke about Jews, will be singing “God Bless America” at the Anti-Defamation League’s  annual meeting. From the ADL release:

 In a meeting with ADL leaders Dr. Tynan unequivocally and sincerely apologized for a comment he made about Jews. The ADL leaders said that “in talking with Dr. Tynan and hearing his life story, it was clear that he is a good man who understood that he had made an inappropriate comment that was hurtful not only to the person who heard it but to the community.”

I think having to sit through a Jewish testimonial dinner is enough punishment for anybody.
