TIM ROBBINS - ROBBINS APOLOGISES FOR 'WRONG' COMMENT

Outspoken actor TIM ROBBINS has publically apologised for using the terms "chicken hawks" when describing the administration of GEORGE W BUSH earlier this year (03).

The politically active star - who alongside partner SUSAN SARANDON was a fierce opponent of the war in Iraq - spoke of his regret about picking that particular phrase - as it has a double meaning.

He tells website PAGESIX, "I regret using that term. I meant to refer to their militarism without actual war service, but I was also aware that chicken hawk refers to older gay men who go after young boys.

"I just used the wrong words."
