The Los Angeles Times apologized to Sean “Diddy” Combs today for alluding the mogul to legendary rapper, Tupac Shakur’s death. The Times reported that “Diddy” knew of the plot to kill Shakur before it occurred. Apparently, The Times received their information from an FBI report that was a total fabrication made by con artist, James Sabatino, 31.

The Times published their story on March 17, 2008 and stated that their information relied on “FBI records recently obtained by The Times” and unnamed sources behind bars.

This is a huge embarrassment to The Times and their reputation is seriously in question. By being conned by the fat white man who is nothing but an obsessive fan above, I don’t know how they’ll ever bounce back from this. The Times has never been as prestigious as The NY Times, Washington Post, or The Chicago Tribune, but has been publishing various works, gaining accolades left and right, to become a publishing heavyweight. This incident will definitely put them back another five years. What a shame.
