Last month Peacock TV released the Sean 'Diddy' Combs documentary "Diddy: The Makings of a Bad Boy."
Now Diddy has filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit...
From Variety
Sean “Diddy” Combs has filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against NBCUniversal, Peacock TV and Ample Entertainment for defamatory statements published in the documentary “Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy.”
The lawsuit asserts that these media companies “falsely, recklessly, and maliciously” accused Combs of serial murder and six trafficking, among other claims made by Al B. Sure, Rodney Jones (who has filed his own lawsuit against Combs) and attorney Ariel Mitchell, among other sources.
The documentary “Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy” premiered on Peacock on Jan. 14 and looks into multiple claims against the mogul, most prominently, Combs’ alleged involvement in the death of his former girlfriend, Kimberly Porter, in addition to Biggie, Andre Harrell, Heavy D, and the attempted murder of Al B. Sure.
Erica Wolff, Combs’ attorney, issued a statement on the new lawsuit claiming these media companies “made a conscious decision to line their own pockets at the expense of truth, decency, and basic standards of professional journalism.”
Wolff continues, “Grossly exploiting the trust of their audience and racing to outdo their competition for the most salacious Diddy exposé, Defendants maliciously and recklessly broadcast outrageous lies in’“Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy.’ In the purported documentary, Defendants accuse Mr. Combs of horrible crimes, including serial murder and sixual assault of minors – knowing that there is no evidence to support them. In making and broadcasting these falsehoods, among others, Defendants seek only to capitalize on the public’s appetite for scandal without any regard for the truth and at the expense of Mr. Combs’s right to a fair trial. Mr. Combs brings this lawsuit to hold Defendants accountable for the extraordinary damage their reckless statements have caused.”
Combs is seeking $100 million in damages for the “severe reputational and economic harm” caused by what he claims are false and defamatory statements.

THIS THE SEAN JOHN COMBS I'M USED T HEARING ABOUT.
DON'T LET FOLKS F**K UP YOUR NAME & REPUTATION ESPECIALLY IF THEY'RE LYING WITHOUT PROOF!
Whatever. He's guilty of a lot of sh*t proven and unproven.
Rest in peace Kim.
Good. 👍🏾
ON SECOND THOUGHT, I WOULD'VE SUED FOR NO LESS THAN $500 MILLION!
SHOW THEM WHO YOU ARE, PUFF!
Definitely was A smear campaign going on against diddy.
NBC was being reckless. Sue they arses.
The bottom line is ,due to all these entities putting out shows etc. in the court of public opinion..he's already guilty, which was their intentions. However this will not afford him a trial of unbiased jurors, this man is guilty of so much as we all are(but not to his degree , nor the degree of ALL in that industry), however due to what these companies have put out, doesn't seem like he will get a fair trial anywhere.
There trying to R.KELLY Diddy and he ain't havin' it! Sue the shiznit outta NBC, Sean!
He ain't filed jack against CNN nor InterContinental Hotels for airing that beat down he gave Cassie, now is he?
You want to sue someone then let's see you sue them.
I hope NBC, Netflix and everyone else gets a piece of Brother Love. He does not deserve justice.
He didn't kill nobody and should be allowed bond, which he hasn't been allowed bond for mostly accusations against hi.
Anything he may be guilty of we'll see in three months when the trial begins. Until then, D
Until his trial begins, Diddy, sue any and every body companies included for trying to find you guilty in the eyes of public opinion instead of via the courts!
You say he didn't kill 'nobody' @1:52 PM...no one that you know of but, Oh! he has had his hands in some deaths; particularly when he first started out! Making sacrifices so he can go higher with Clive! What about Biggie?
2:23 pm Don't you mean: He ALLEGEDLY" has had his hands in some deaths......."?
You speaking like you bear witness to all he's been accused BUT NEVER Charged or Convicted of! Watch yourself with your wording before you're the next 1 being sued.
Glad i only watched the Max documentary on him. Seemed less scandalous, more factual with commenters expressing their versions of facts rather than just rumors and conspiracy theories.
Diddy did it
Cassie video.
To all that want him to sue and/or receive bond:
A Time to Kill “Now imagine she was your daughter”
Second hand gratification for “justice” for this abusive POS is crazy. This the damn narcissist comment section, I’ll see my way out.
Diddy BEEN had a reputation of being Jena nasty cut throat and a bully abusive and possible murde idk why all of a sudden ppl want to claim “the industry “ “the man” the system trying to ruin him like r kelly when will we admit these men single handily ruined their own reputation nobody made them act this way! After a while ppl get tired of being victims and they find their voice to speak out! I hate our community praises criminals and make up all types of theories about someone trying to bring down a KNOWN criminal! He had kid kudi car blown up and I don’t want to hear innocent until proven guilty we know there are things this man did that can’t be disputed we know he was contacting victims ! Stop it
That's why he's sitting in prison right now. He tried to strong arm and sue that liquor company and all his dirty deeds came out. NBC is just gonna dig up more of this fool's crimes and he'll never get out of jail. We don't need any more Sean Combs in our community!
Take that take that. nbc
ABC, CBS and NBC have historically been in line with the government to destroy our people through negative propaganda and images in media. The creators of the stereotype.
Y'all can miss me with all of this. Brudda Love didn't need any help from the networks in destroying some of our lives.
He got help and lots of it, but it wasn't from the networks.
And I ain't NEVER here for the media, but I'll be damned if I'll stand up for this sadist. I wish they'd throw him in Cell Block One. That's the kind of justice he deserves.
@3:52PM.- Lawsuit Settlement!
Normally, I support the media, but they've gotten out of control as of lately supporting their own agenda, and it's unfair to mainly ppl of color. So, I support Diddy finally defending himself against all the b.s. propaganda against him for the last nearly 10 months or so.
Ninjas want to be flamboyant and public with their successes. Might as well endure the downfall of success in the public eye as well with a smile on their face. Puffy is due his right to sue but feeling like NBC was wrong is being shortsighted. NBC is doing their job and Puffy is a public figure well known to many so yeah, I’d of jumped on too. He ain’t no saint even if they were in the wrong. He has humiliated and destroyed a lot of lives spiritually and physically. F’ck him!
^NBC's "job" is to report the truth, not hearsay and lies w/o proof!
I saw the MAX documentary. He should never get out.
How are some of y'all taking up for Fist Brawl (Chris Brown) but taking Diddy to task for doing some of the same horrendous sh#t against women or others?
Y'all all f.o.s. with that double standard!
If Diddy looked like Chris....
Diddy is worst than Chris. Diddy is all over the place murking and stealing peoples' private parts.
Abercrombie and Finch's CEO has the same charges allegedly and was given a bond.
Thank you Lord Jesus for not letting me court, date, marry, any narcissistic male men like Diddy or others. I’ve came across maybe some on the internet during commentary but that’s it. I see you showing me Lord God that ev!l is amongst us. I’m so grateful for the warning. Amen 🙏🏽
he's guilty and hopefully he dies in prison
Y'all need to keep that same negative energy towards Chris Brown too. Who knows what he's capable of.
If that hotel security camera hadn't materialized we wouldn't have known what Diddy was doing to Cassie just like if the police hadn't released that horrific pic of Rih's badly beatened face we wouldn't have known what Chris Brown was capable of.
Keep that same energy towards other celebrity women beaters, y'all.
If you're confused about Diddy's crimes watch the documentary on MAX. i thought I knew what he had done but this left me gagging. He was ray ping and taping women and the Feds have the tapes. He violently ray ped his own girlfriends. He is a danger to anyone who crosses his path. Keep him locked up.
UNLIKE YOU I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING I HEAR, SEE, READ.
UNLESS THOSE ACCUSERS FILED CHARGES AGAINST HIM INSTEAD OF COMPLAINTS TO MAKE WAY FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES LAWSUITS, I SAY IT MUST'VE NOT BEEN AS SERIOUS TO & FOR THEM AS IT SHOULD'VE BEEN CONSIDERED. THUS, I WON'T TAKE IT AS SERIOUSLY EITHER IF THEY HADN'T WHEN IT ALLEGEDLY OCCURRED.
That Peacock doc was wild, but if you notice or if you watched a lot of people to the truth or facts (like the stampede or Al B Sure dating Kim Porter first) and their opinions about it. If it is true, it isnt defamatory. This puff's burden to bear. this lawsuit is his lawyer getting billables.
Again, I don't care about other ppl's stories of Diddy b/c they're meaningless words from meaningless ppl! I only wonder about why didn't these ppl come forth when they needed to to bring him up on charges instead of running to be a collective circus for the I-HATE SEAN DIDDY COMBS' media system!
10:40 A.M.- You are aware that these folks who participated in these so-called documentaries were paid for their participation, don't you?
Anyone can come forth now and give a I-Have -A-Puffy-Story-To-Tell and get added on to a programming by these big networks. It's sickening.
