Jimmy talks about the LA Times printing a false story and the implications on his life and career, and perception vs. reality inside the business of Hip-Hop music.
Phil Carson explains how the LAPD used the LA Times as a tool in the cover-up. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chuck Philips has secrets buried to this day surrounding the murder of Biggie and his relationship with LAPD brass Mike Berkow.
FBI Agent Phil Carson completes his story about the operation to wire up FBI Informant Psycho Mike Robinson to meet with alleged triggerman Amir Muhammad. Former LAPD Homicide investigator Sergio Robleto was hired by Violetta Wallace and her attorney Perry Sanders. Robleto reveals information and evidence secured in the course of his own investigation during the civil trial, filed by Miss Wallace against the City of Los Angeles and the LAPD.
Wallace's family reacted harshly to the charges, saying the L.A. Times story ″takes facts on record and juxtaposes them with hazy, unattributed remarks which are not the result of any legitimate investigation, but rather are simply an effort to generate more confusion and publicity.″
Sean "Diddy" Combs has denied a report by the Los Angeles Times that his associates were responsible for the 1994 robbery and shooting of Tupac Shakur at a New York recording studio, and that he knew about the attack in advance.
Philips, who covers the music industry for The Times, won the award for cultural reporting. Philips has written stories about scandals over lip-syncing and sexual harassment in the music business, the continued use of "payola" to gain air time for records, and shake-ups at Time Warner's music division.
Los Angeles Times reporters Chuck Philips and Michael A. Hiltzik won the Pulitzer Prize for beat reporting Monday for their stories on corruption in the entertainment industry. The Pulitzer Prize Board cited their work on three major projects--"a charity sham sponsored by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, illegal detoxification programs for wealthy celebrities and a resurgence of radio payola."
But his and the paper's coverage of this case has attracted an inordinate amount of harsh criticism from other journos, ranging from Rolling Stone's detailed attack by Randall Sullivan to the juicy slam by Jan Golab for FrontPageMagazine.com. An even more meticulous picking apart of Philips' obsession with this unsolved rap-world shooting is offered in a long-running series of posts on Patterico, a Los Angeles website operated by blogger and Los Angeles County assistant district attorney Patrick Frey.
Who killed Tupac Shakur?" asked the Los Angeles Times last week in a front-page story that sparked a huge firestorm in the hip-hop community.
Six years after rapper Tupac Shakur was murdered in a mysterious drive-by shooting in LAS VEGAS, his arch rival Biggie Smalls has been implicated as a key player in the crime... Smalls, according to The Times, was brought into the plan when The Crips decided to make some money out of the killing. He agreed to stump up the $1million on condition that the killing bullet was fired from his own gun. He is said to have presented The Crips with a .40-caliber Glock pistol.
When looking back on this nine-year-long saga of deceit and corruption, nothing is more troubling — or more incomprehensible — than the role played by The Los Angeles Times.
The film, tentatively titled "Suge Knight," will be directed by "Training Day" filmmaker Antoine Fuqua. Fuqua will also co-produce the documentary, with Bradley J. Fischer, whose credits include "Black Swan," "Shutter Island" and "Zodiac." David Prior, Laeta Kalogridis, James Vanderbilt, Lisa Remington and Edward McGurn will executive-producers, while journalist Chuck Philips will serve as co-producer.
The names of L.A. Times staffers taking buyouts or getting pinkslips began to circulate in journo circles on Monday night, fueled by postings on numerous media-centric websites. Among the scribes involved in the paper's showbiz coverage who are exiting the building is longtime investigative reporter Chuck Philips.
