Despite Denials, LA Times Stands By Tupac Story

Newsday reports that Marc Duvoisin, an assistant managing editor of the Los Angeles Times has responded to denials from the family of the family of Notorious B.I.G. on the Times’ story Chuck Philips ran fingering Biggie as the financier of Tupac Shakur’s murder. “We stand by the story,” Duvoisin said. Bakari Kitwana, a former editor of Source magazine commented that he knew Philips has credible sources in the hip-hop underworld. “It sounds outrageous,” Kitwana said of B.I.G.’s reported involvement, “but stranger things have happened in the hip-hop world.”
