Offset’s Financial Spiral, L.A. Reid Settles Lawsuit & Black Press Pushes Back
Wednesday, 14 January, 2026
Music power broker L.A. Reid reaches a last-minute settlement in the sexual assault lawsuit filed by former Arista Records executive Drew Dixon, avoiding what was expected to be a high-profile federal trial in Manhattan. The settlement raises familiar questions about accountability, business risk, and why some stories never reach a jury. Rapper Offset is thrust into the spotlight after Celina Powell leaks alleged audio and FaceTime footage that quickly went viral. In the clips, Offset is allegedly heard threatening NFL star Stefon Diggs, while Powell also claims Offset confided in her about serious financial problems — including millions owed in taxes, gambling issues, and fallout from his divorce from Cardi B. Gospel singer Donnie McClurkin publicly refutes allegations in a recently filed lawsuit, denying wrongdoing and pushing back against claims circulating online — reopening conversations about accountability, faith leaders, and how allegations are handled within religious spaces. Veteran journalist Lynn Jones-Turpin responds to backlash after her supportive postgame comments to Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen went viral. Critics labeled the exchange “unprofessional,” while Jones-Turpin defended her role as a member of the Black press and the NNPA’s long legacy, arguing that encouragement and humanity are not violations of journalistic standards.
