Hey, remember the other day when New York Magazine ran that long, in-depth profile on Judith Regan, claiming to offer the “bitchy editrix” perspective on that whole O.J. Simpson earning-money-for-murdering-his-wife fiasco?
Well, turns out Nicole Brown’s family was none too pleased, both by the part where Judith admitted to fasting for months at a time (seriously, who does that?) and that whole business where the author claimed Brown’s family was in negotiations to strike a deal with their loved one’s “hypothetical” killer for a piece of the (profit) pie.
So, they decided to sue.
Yesterday, their lawyers slapped NY Mag with a letter, demanding an immediate correction and apology, and accusing the author of ignoring any/all of their statements contradictory to the story she originally had in mind.
And now, NY Mag has apparently fired back, responding with a half-hearted apology to the Brown family, (i.e. sorry we may have accidentally implied you were in bed with a homicidal maniac) and then points out they never even saw the letter.
Incidentally, the only place we’ve seen this letter is on [the Mediabistro] today. It never arrived in any offices associated with New York magazine or Bruce Wasserstein.
Wait a second, so first, the Brown family has to sit through a long article about Judith Regan’s eating habits (or lack thereof). Then, they realize the author has suggested that they sanctioned the hypothetical ramblings of Nicole’s alleged murderer. And finally, it turns out that their scary-sounding letter to NY Mag never even made it there because the messenger who was supposed to deliver it “got high” instead??
Yeah…we understand that “bitches have feelings too,” but we’re going to have to side with the Brown family on this one.
