(Fox News) - An official for the Obama transition says the president-elect's chief speechwriter has offered an apology to Hillary Clinton.

The Washington Post reports photos of Jon Favreau appeared briefly on the Web site Facebook. One shows him groping a cardboard cutout of the secretary of state-designate while a friend is offering her a beer. Another has Favreau dancing with a cutout.

A spokesman says Clinton is pleased to learn of Favreau's "obvious interest" in the State Department.
