Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) admitted during a press conference this
afternoon that he did send a lewd photo of himself to a woman via
Twitter. He also admitted he engaged in inappropriate conversations with
several women via online mediums and phone calls. Some of those
conversations, he said, took place since he’s been married.
According to Weiner, who apologized, he lied to the media as well as
others about the photos and nature of his relationships. He previously
stated he was “hacked” when then photo came out May 27.
While he did admit to the photos and interactions — most of which
started via Facebook — he said he never met any of the women in person.
The admission comes as more pictures emerged today of a shirtless man
resembling weiner — pictures sent to a woman via a Yahoo! mail account.
Those pictures, Weiner now says, were of him.
Despite apologizing, Weiner said he will not resign. He added that he and his wife have no plans on splitting up.
