Eh, brilliant! Publicly slander someone, say sorry through a fucking tweet and apparently its all fine now, regardless of the fallout caused by his stupid comments. I love how the internet works.
And all the "he donated money, he can't be an asshole" comments... I mean really? I can be an arse at times yet i'll still give money to a charity or homeless guy if I can, even if that means i'll have to do without a drink on the way home. Is that any less charitable? Not really, I helped him, I gave up a personal comfort. I made another human happier. Am I still a dick for my general behavior? Of course I am. You can't buy a change in character just by giving to charity.
