Gay hotel owners 'deeply sorry' for hosting Ted Cruz event

Reuters/Brian Snyder)Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).Two prominent gay hoteliers profusely apologized on Sunday for hosting an event for presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) the week before.

"I am shaken to my bones by the emails, texts, postings, and phone calls of the past few days," one of the hoteliers, Ian Reisner, wrote on Facebook. "I made a terrible mistake. I was ignorant, naive, and much too quick in accepting a request to cohost a dinner with Cruz at my home."

As The New York Times first reported, Reisner and his business partner Mati Weiderpass hosted a "fireside chat" with Cruz last Monday at their Manhattan penthouse. The event was not a fundraiser, but some called for boycotting the Reisner and Weiderpass' Out NYC Hotel, which caters to LGBT customers, because of Cruz's social conservative positions.

Weiderpass also called the decision to host Cruz "a terrible mistake" on Facebook.
