The Los Angeles Times dismissed an investigative reporter Friday after discovering he had an inappropriate relationship with someone who was a source for a front-page story that the newspaper says contained an error.
Times Editor Davan Maharaj said Jason Felch's relationship with a source and his failure to disclose the relationship constituted "a professional lapse of the kind that no news organization can tolerate."
"Our credibility depends on our being a neutral, unbiased source of information — in appearance as well as in fact," he said.
An editor's note that appeared on the newspaper's website (http://lat.ms/1cHGf9Q) did not identify the source.
Felch said in a statement that the story was published weeks before the relationship began, and that he stopped relying upon the person as a source during the relationship. He believed he was fired for creating the appearance of a conflict of interest.
"I accept full responsibility for what I did and regret the damage it has done to my family and my colleagues at one of the nation's great newspapers," Felch said.
Felch's Dec. 7 article said Occidental College didn't disclose 27 alleged sex assaults in 2012, as it should have under a federal law requiring campuses to publish serious crime reports on or near campus. The Times said a review found that the incidents did not meet the law's disclosure requirements for a variety of reasons.
The error was repeated in two subsequent stories, the Times said.
Felch said his article was based upon a confidential complaint now being investigated by federal authorities and that the allegation was supported by other documents and interviews.
