Sen. Barack Obama said Sunday he was not greatly offended by the Fox News chief's word play about his name that led Nevada Democrats to cancel a presidential debate hosted with the network.
Fox's Roger Ailes made a remark last week about the similarities between the Illinois senator's name and al-Qaida leader Osama Bin Laden.
''I didn't take great offense at the joke,'' Obama said in an Associated Press interview while campaigning in Iowa. ''I have been called worse.''

''Fortunately, I feel very comfortable about how I've conducted my life, and I think I will survive the vetting process with flying colors,'' he said.
