'Recants And Reverses His Two Prior Media Assertions'

I have had the opportunity to review the media release of Mr. Davidar. Both women who came forward avoided any personal interviews with media, despite requests, hoping to have the matter dealt with quietly. I have endeavoured to keep them personally out of the public eye as much as possible. However, this statement recants and reverses his two prior media assertions, with regard to the nature of his departure from Penguin and of the nature of the friendship with Ms. Rundle. By his own admission, he has lied to the media twice, and to his wife for years. He now asks that his third version of the facts be accepted as the truth. I will not comment further.
