They attempted to censor him, by removing part of his speech from the teleprompter. He got his phone out and read it from there instead.

Wow that's so insanely stupid of Apple. Think he wouldnt notice?

Their claim is that they were using an older draft.

Actually it's the opposite. They're claiming he hadn't received/approved the newest draft, which is an insane justification when you think about it, like 'we didn't realize that he hadn't approved the changes the we independently made to his speech'
