@scrubbles @pootriarch So let me get this straight.

By his own admission, Kevin Federline let Daphne Barak, from The Sun, into his home.

And he has confirmed this in his statement to TMZ, a tabloid that routinely took Jamie Spears' and his associates side in the conservatorship saga.

The immediate question that comes to my mind is what on Earth was he doing letting a writer from The Sun into his home?!

Worse, according to Daphne, this happened: "During filming for an upcoming documentary I have made on the Spears family".

So a writer from The Sun asks to do an interview for a "documentary" on the family and Kevin, by his own admission, said yes to it.

Aside from anything else, what on Earth was he thinking?

Whoopsies! Accidentally let a writer from The Sun into my house with a film crew for an interview!

Now here's the interesting part. Look how general he is with his denial. He claims Daphne "decided to fabricate lies and publish the heart ache our family has endured".

He doesn't explicitly say the quote attributed to him was false.

So either:

a) Kev is honest, and The Sun reporter fabricated a quote from him, after an interview that was presumably recorded.

b) Kev lies about his ex in an interview with The Sun. Then when The Sun publishes what he said, he tries to pin those lies on the reporter.

If a) is the case, then what on Earth did he think would happen when a tabloid reporter came knocking? But frankly, b) wouldn't surprise me either.

All great points, I don't know which one it was, but I know I would never trust The Sun to ever report something honestly.

@scrubbles As far as The Sun is concerned, they either published a false claim (Britney's on meth) they heard from an untrustworthy source in Kevin, or they made up a false claim (if Kevin is to be believed).

Either way, it's a long way from best practice journalism. They're still being the Murdoch-owned tabloid snakes they're famous for being.

But, after the whole conservatorship fiasco, I wouldn't trust any member of the extended Spears family, including Kevin.

'who's telling the truth, k-fed or the sun'?

argh i need a third option
