Sorry we said you were a soft-porn actress

The Mail has published this apology today:

Our serialisation of a biography of Mick Jagger in July erroneously described model and Brazilian TV presenter Luciana Gimenez Morad as a soft-porn actress. It also said that she had received a lump sum payment from the star after their son was born.

In fact, while she does receive monthly child support, she neither requested nor received a lump sum. We apologise to Ms Gimenez Morad.

    The way the apology is written in the last paragraph makes it sound like they're not really apologising for calling her a soft-porn actress, merely for asking/receiving a lump sum from Mick Jagger. I'm not saying the ambiguity's deliberate, though.

    I agree. It only apologises for the lump sum versus monthly payments. There is no apology for the soft porn actress remark.
