National Enquirer Settles With Brooke Shields After Sneaking Her Mother Out Of Nursing Home

Obviously the National Enquirer knows thier reporter was in the wrong when he decided to sneak Brooke Shield’s mother, who suffers from dementia, out of her nursing home in an attempt to get a tabloid story. They have settled with Brooke after she threatened legal action.
“I am very pleased to report that [the] National Enquirerwas prevailed upon not to publish a story,” Shields’s attorney Gerald B. Lefcourt tells People magazine. “Further, it has or will be apologizing publicly. Finally, it has agreed to make a generous donation to further research on dementia and to encourage others to do so.”
Brooke didn’t want the media to know about her mother’s condition and was forced to come forward with this information after the National Enquirer’s actions. I think she should still take legal action against the paper, they shouldn’t get off with a slap on the wrist for this one.
