Los Angeles Times apologized for the story that implicates P Diddy in the 1994 shooting of Tupac Shakur. L.A. Times retracted the story and admitted that Chuck Philips had written the story based on a fake FBI documents.
The story "An Attack on Tupac Shakur Launched a Hip-Hop War" was retracted after three weeks, in which Chuck Philips assumed that Diddy’s associates had arranged the shooting of Shakur at a New York recording studio, after Tupac refused an offers to join Combs' Bad Boy Records label.
In the retraction, the Times reported that Philips' story and the related faked documents have been removed from the paper's site because the article relied on information that the Times no longer believes to be credible.
In an interview with MTV Combs told that the Times story "just really hurt." Sean Combs and manager Jimmy Rosemond denied the involvement in the Shakur shooting from the moment the story was published.
The documents Philips used to build his story appeared to have been faked by James Sabatino, who is presently in prison on charges of fraud and racketeering.
