On 22 February we published an article about Journey guitarist Neal Schon and his fiancée Michaele Salahi, entitled ‘Exclusive: Journey guitarist Neal Schon left ex-wife and daughters “so broke they can’t buy food” .. but he gave Real Housewives of DC fiancée $1 MILLION ring’. It claimed falsely that Mr Schon was a deadbeat dad and repeated allegations that he had neglected his ex-wife and two young children, leaving them in such a precarious financial position that they have no money for food or bills and that their home would have to be sold. It also reported claims that Mr Schon was a “drunk and abusive man” who had become “increasingly spiteful and vindictive” using his money to bully his ex-wife and that his fiancée Michaele Salahi had turned him against his former wife. We accept that these allegations are untrue and apologise to Mr Schon, Ms Salahi and the family for any distress caused. We have agreed to pay Mr Schon and Michaele damages and legal costs

Good outcome. BS article.

In this day and age, it's better and maybe a money maker, to put out false information and apologize later, even if admitting you made it all up to sell copies. Better to beg forgiveness afterwards than ask permission first and be turned down.

They probably made double what they are paying Neal and Michaele.

So did they have it printed in microscopic font and have it tucked far away somewhere in the back of their tabloid magazine compared to how they had the bullshit article in larger print and closer to the "feature" articles?

Most of us knew it was bs from the get go, at least I did. Too bad we can't fuck with their lives like they do to others.
