Time Offers ‘Regret’ for Jewell Coverage

Time magazine expressed its regret about possible inaccuracies in its coverage of Richard Jewell, and the magazine said the onetime suspect in the Atlanta Olympics bombing has agreed not to sue. The regret was expressed in a clarification published in the magazine’s Aug. 25 issue. No monetary payment was involved in the settlement, said Diana Pearson, a spokeswoman for Time, which is owned by Time Warner Inc. Time’s five-paragraph clarification says that some of the statements about him in two magazine stories “may have been inaccurate or incomplete.”
