Video captured Ms Laszlo kicking people and tripping them up, including a man carrying a small child, sparked outrage when it surfaced earlier this week.
"I am very sorry for the incident, and as a mother I am especially sorry for the fact that fate pushed a child in my way,'' Ms Laszlo wrote in her letter published in Hungarian newspaper Magyar Nemzet. ''I did not see that at that moment. I started to panic and as I re-watch the film, it seems as it was not even me.
She added, ''I'm just a woman, and now an unemployed mother of small children, who made a bad decision in a situation of panic. I do not deserve the political witch-hunts against me, nor the smears or the death threats.''
She was sacked by Hungary's N1TV station, which is affiliated to the far-right Jobbik party.
The station said in a statement that she had shown "unacceptable behaviour".
