After
MediaTakeOut accused Kim Kardashian of faking the Paris robbery in several
articles, Kim Kardashian and her legal team filed a libel lawsuit against them.
Yesterday
Friday Oct. 14th, MediaTakeOut.com posted an apology letter online to Kim
saying the robbery did really happen. The site's founder, Fred Mwangaguhunga,
acknowledged that their reporting went too far. See the apology after the
cut...
"Our
number one goal is to produce the most accurate information as quickly as
possible and we did that," Mwangaguhunga said.
"But now,
looking back at it, you have a chance often times to look back and reflect on
what it is that happened. It's now clear that she was robbed. It's clear that
the reporting that we did hurt her, and we certainly don't want that to be what
we do."
"After
speaking to sources, including some connected to the Kardashians, and getting
further details on the sequence of events – we are now confident and without a
doubt believe that Kim Kardashian was robbed as was reported to the Paris
police. Anyone who is still questioning it, is wrong.'
"We can
understand how reports questioning if the robbery in fact took place can be
hurtful, and so we apologize,''No one deserves to go through such a traumatic
experience.
Kim is not
just celebrity, she is a person, a wife and a mother – who in no way deserved
what happened to her,
''We wish her
the best as she emotionally recovers from the traumatic incident.'
Those articles
have since been taken off the site.
"It's a
bigger issue than just someone telling you to take it down," Fred
Mwangaguhunga said. "Sometimes you take it down because there's something
on there that's not right and your readers are being misled by the information
on it."
In regards to
the lawsuit, Mwangaguhunga said he believes the lawsuit will be "resolved
very soon."
He also said
that Kim Kardashian did not "deserve" to be at the center of this
speculation.
