"The Only Hookers Fox WON'T Cover"
"The Only Hookers Fox WON'T Cover"

The Nation Mon May 8, 11:49 AM ET

The Nation -- As far as scandals are concerned, the widening investigation into former Rep. Duke Cunningham has got it all. The drumroll, in no specific order:


Prostitutes. Poker. The Watergate Hotel. Members of Congress. Shady limousine companies. CIA officials with names like Dusty Foggo and Nine Fingers.

What more could reporters want in a story? I seem to recall that the last time there was a sex scandal in DC, back in the late 1990s, reporters paid rapt attention.

But so far much of big media keep downplaying or ignoring Hookergate (go read Josh Marshall)--and its connection to departed CIA chief Porter Goss.

6. What is that phrase again?
"Nothing worse for a political career than finding a dead woman or a live man in a politicians bed."
