SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) -- The San Francisco 49ers announced they have suspended radio broadcaster Ted Robinson for comments he made on domestic violence.

"I want to unconditionally apologize for my comments the other day. As a professional communicator, I am responsible for my words. My choice of words was careless and does not reflect my true feelings about domestic violence," he said.
