CNN —Variety has a mess on its hands.
Former CNN chief Jeff Zucker, The Atlantic journalist Tim Alberta, and Puck Editor-In-Chief Jon Kelly have all called for the outlet to publicly correct the record.
But, thus far, Variety has resisted taking any such action, outside quietly removing the widely panned Tatiana Siegel-written feature from its online homepage.
The outlet’s deafening silence comes as the piece begins to fall apart in public.
(It goes without saying that Zucker’s camp denied to Siegel that this ever happened, but she printed it anyway.)
