Some people it seems to me would like for me to crawl in a hole and disappear forever. That's just not in my nature.

I am making amends and seeking forgiveness. My only hope is that some good can come out of my situation.

I believe my own demons would have caught up with me regardless of my race and regardless of whether I worked at 'The Times.

It's very painful to have something that's not true written about you.

Once I had a better beat, I needed to have an even better one. And somewhere in that climbing, I lost sight of, sort of, my moral and ethical underpinnings.

You know I am done lying. Obscuring the truth is no longer something I have any interest in doing. I want it all to come out. The good, the bad, the ugly.

One of my weaknesses happens to be lying, and I could tell you that I'm never going to lie again in my life, but that would be a lie.
