Acknowledges what exactly? I don't think they dispute they gave the story/photograph to the Sun, that much is clear. What is being questioned, at least as i follow it by you, is the veracity of the photograph indeed being Ignatieff or not. In that case here is the response...
Quote:
The campaign provided Sun Media with information that had been acquired during Internet research, namely a photograph described as that of Mr. Ignatieff. The campaign made clear to Sun Media that the identity in the photograph could not be verified and that our own efforts to verify the photograph had been exhausted. Sun Media informed us that it would conduct its own verification and due diligence. Sun Media concluded that the identity could not be verified. The Sun made the right decision



Or am I missing something?
