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.
