Extremely well done. Tough guy. We'll see what happens next.

A weak defense if you ask me. He never really goes into why the paper chose to investigate these allegations, nor why the paper didn't go after the Davis camp in a similar vein in regard to the stories about temper tantrums.

He seems to complain endlessly about the short time frame for investigative reporting. Excuse me, 60 something days and two seasoned investigative reports struggled till the very last few days to find anything credible? He needs to hire better investigative reporting if this is all they dug up on a mega-star in 60 days.

Basically, we are all supposed to believe him that these reports didn't come from Davis operatives. And we're supposed to believe him that these were credible eyewitnesses.

We're dealing with hollywood and a mega-star who has been in the public light for decades. If these events are page one newsworthy, then perhaps he can explain to me why the paper neglected to cover rape charges against Bill Clinton?

No John Carrol, this weak defense will not save your papers already tarnished and extremely biased reputation.
