An Example of the Media's Bottom-feeding

Here's exactly what Elton John was fighting about -- real media feeding off and repeating the rumours of tabloids and worse. IMDB.com is now saying Jamie Foxx WASN'T blasting director Michael Mann for conditions on the set of Miami Vice. The original source of the story that spread around the web like wildfire? The obscure website www.contactmusic.com. Gee, and to think they got it wrong. Anyone who repeated that without asking themselves why would Foxx give an interview to an obscure website to attack his director should be ashamed of themselves.

Wasn't there also a bogus story IMDB spread about Foxx getting furious on the set over a racist prank? I think that too proved a lie.
