Tabloid to Teri Hatcher: Sorry for false story
From The Associated Press
Britain’s bestselling newspaper apologized Wednesday to “Desperate Housewives” star Teri Hatcher for a story that claimed she had sex with men in a van outside her home.
The Sun tabloid acknowledged that the article, which it ran last August, was “totally incorrect” and apologized to Hatcher “for the embarrassment caused.”
Her legal firm, Schillings, said the newspaper had agreed to pay undisclosed damages and Hatcher’s costs. It said the celebrity magazine Heat also had agreed to apologize for printing the same allegations in August.
