disagree. I think it was a simple business decision they needed to make to prevent the inevitable "Sammy's harbors racist judges" claims that will happen until the story is ironed out.

But, if you noticed, The Rouge Collection wrote their story as a matter of fact and apparently so many people went to the page to read it that the server went down. Hell, Shaun King retweeted the story and it's getting some national attention (although likely not much). The fact that they never said "allegedly" opened them up to a massive libel suit should this story prove to be false or embellished. Gravy better start lawyering up for a possible lawsuit.
