Fax: (212)446-6460 attention that three reporters who work for Newsweek and the Daily Beast—IIIMS, Bill Kline, and Wayne Barnett—are working on new articles about my client, Jeffrey Epstein. Based on some of the prior coverage of Mr. Epstein in your publications, I am very concerned that these forthcoming articles may contain inaccurate and libelous information about Mr. Epstein. We ask you to conduct a careful review of any forthcoming article about Mr. Epstein for the purpose of determining whether the facts are accurate. As you know, Mr. Epstein has completed his state sentence for events that occurred over five years ago. There have been no allegations of any improper conduct since the fall of 2005. Mr. Epstein has now returned to his life as a philanthropist and financial advisor. We would be pleased to meet with you to discuss these matters in order to avoid any further harm to Mr. Epstein, and we would be pleased to check and/or correct any facts about Mr. Epstein in advance of publication. We request that Newsweek and the Daily Beast treat the issues raised in this letter with the seriousness that Mr. Epstein deserves and that you owe to the public as a responsible journalistic enterprise.
