Los Angeles Times | HitsvilleThe Times says it's concluded that the FBI reports used for its
Tupac Shakur story were fabricated and that some of the other sources relied on don't support major elements of the story. On March 27, following a Smoking Gun
investigation, the Times ran a front-page story reporting that it had been the victim of a hoax and apologizing for its error. "The Times reiterates that apology here," the paper says today. ||
Bill Wyman: "I'm not a lawyer, but it's hard not to see how the Times is not vulnerable to a libel suit of potentially epic proportions."
