Harvey Levin Defends TMZ Report on Jussie Smollett’s Attack: ‘Never Said I Believed It’

EXCERPT:

HEMMER: "You broke this story in the very beginning. Why did you believe it?"

LEVIN: "I didn’t say I believed it. What we said was this is what Jussie said. I never said I believed it. We reported what Jussie said happened. I can tell you that from the beginning, police had suspicions. We knew about the suspicions but they on-the-record were saying we consider him a victim."
