LA Times Calls Bullshit on Its Own Tupac/Diddy Story

Remember that LA Times story we called bullshit on, like, weeks ago?

The LA Times called bullshit on it today, too.

“In relying on documents that I now believe were fake, I failed to do my job,” said Chuck Philips, the reporter behind a story accusing Sean “Diddy” Combs of being behind a shooting of Tupac. “I’m sorry.”

The Deputy Managing Editor made a statement of his own: We should not have let ourselves be fooled. That we were is as much my fault as Chuck’s. I deeply regret that we let our readers down.”

So there you go.

I was right, the mainstream media was wrong.

Hooray! ;)

  • damn damn damn i wanted to see diddy get in trouble… now i can only hope he gets crotch crabs

  • Whatever…..Diddy Probably paid the guy off. Has anyone seen “Tupac: Resurrection”? IT shows a lot of anamosity and hate between Biggie and Tupac, and Diddy wasn’t a huge star like he is now, he didnt care what he did back then. Im not convinced that he didnt have anything to do with it. WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY!!!! Its really good. I wasnt a Tupac fan until I watched it =) ♥

  • Let this S#it go people.
    Some people are holding on to this S#it like that grassy knoll crap in Dallas.

  • Perhaps the LA Times editor did not find the dead fish on his doorstep particularly endearing.

  • I think Diddy is just a victim of his success. If Diddy was poor after Tupac shot and Biggie death, no person would care about Diddy.
    Many Black people are just showing their jealousy against Diddy. So the main thing to do is to relate Diddy with Tupac shot. Who is Tupac? he was rapper and cocain dealer, he got shot, so what, is he the only one or the most important guy who was shot in this world? Go the fuck for real. Black people are living in the past, and they think they forget their difficulties by making dreams on Tupac cos he will come back. Seriously!
    Same thing to LA TIMES. They were fooled about fake documents because they know it’s about Diddy. Most important, Diddy is not the main guy in that fake history, they told he was informed about ambush, but why is only his name in all the news? becos Diddy, and jealousy.
    Another thing, Tupac was a singer (rapper) like Biggie. Diddy is a enterpreneur, i dont understand why Tupac was so important to turn Diddy against him. Today we have good singers, good producers, is our life changed? No. Are they more richest? No. Timbaland produces hits, Kanye sells records, are they richest thant 50 or Jay-z? No. Richess is not from music only, it is about extra-music activities that is the source of Diddy’s money. Mickael Jackson is poor today but had sold many records. Mckael had sold more than Tupac cos he is international, and Tupac was us ghetto rapper only.
