I think the LA Times issue with running the P.Diddy story is a tough ethical call. As the LA times is arguing they could have had no idea that the FBI documents were fabricated. However, since this is such a high profile case they needed to do some serious investigating before running this story. If there was any doubt in their mind (I would find it hard to believe if there wasn't) then they should have done some serious fact checking. I do not think it would be that hard to discover these documents were fake, which makes me think the LA time did very little background work. In which I think they are wrong for running the story. Also, since this has been such a long and on going thing (Tupacs murder) it seems like it would be common sense to look into every detail and fact throughouly.
