Absolutely - but I suspect the apology was because the term Holocaust is literal and specific to the murder of the Jews.
It’s all semantics obviously.
Even if that’s the reason, it didn’t need spelling out on air. Just genuinely apologise to whoever is offended - I doubt that most Jewish people would have wanted one. It’s not like ITV were trying to whitewash over the horrors visited upon Jewish people.
Anyway, wouldn’t the news piece have been centred on the Auschwitz anniversary, which did murder others too.
