Melissa Joan Hart Apologizes For Offering Free Shipping On 9/11

Melissa Joan Hart apologized for her offer to ship purchases made from her King of Harts clothing line for free in commemoration of 9/11.

MELISSA JOAN HART APOLOGIZES FOR 9/11 FREE SHIPPING

On Friday, Hart posted on Twitter that she was disappointed in how little coverage there was on the September 11 memorial.

“Extremely disappointed in @foxnews and @CNN for not having continual coverage of Sept11 memorial &names listed on the banner!!#neverforget,” she tweeted. “My children need to know that this day changed our lives in the U.S. And the world and without solid news coverage, I’m discouraged.”

In order to bring attention to this lack of coverage, Hart announced that King Of Harts would give free shipping to anyone who made purchases from her clothing line if they used the code “911”. This led to comments about her disrespecting the holiday and using it for her own financial gain.

In response, Hart apologized on Friday, saying that she was merely upset about the lack of coverage and that this was meant to be a way to bring attention to those who lost their lives on 9/11, but not to herself.

She then posted another apology on Facebook on Saturday. “I want to apologize for yesterday’s free shipping post. It was meant to be my small way to give something back. I wanted to cover the shipping charges as a heartfelt gesture, not an exploit of 9/11. I see now how it was interpreted and viewed as being in bad taste. I apologize. It was a mistake. I did not want to draw attention away from what the focus of yesterday should have been. And for that, I am sad.”

Hart is currently filming God’s Not Dead 2 which comes out March 27, 2016.
