But have they apologized personally to Tony Pierce? In a 100% absolutely sincere, you betcha statement, Penthouse has apologized for printing topless photos of some random skinny chick and identifying them on the cover as being exclusive shots of Anna Kournikova.

"We deeply regret this unintentional error and offer our heartfelt apologies to both women," the magazine said in a statement. [...] In the statement, Penthouse said it had examined the purported images Kournikova in "painstaking detail" and received assurances from the photographer before deciding they were genuine.

The "painstaking detail" must have not included the part where they actually look at the photos, since the woman in them doesn't resemble Kournikova even a little bit. Ah well, I'm a Hingis man, myself.
