DRUDGE: NEWT'S EX UNLOADS -- NETWORK DEBATES ETHICS OF RELEASE.

[hueylong]

Headline at drudge.

[sluggo]

Ethics? Networks?

[Back In Black]

Oh boy

[hueylong]

ABC. Ethics of releasing interview before primary.

[archangel689]

What a bunch of shit.

[thoughtomator]

How about the ethics of withholding information that they know primary voters want to know about?

[sailingaway]

Ethics? Networks?

Who knew?

[alucard13mmfmj]

newts ex? is that the ex that had cancer?

[sailingaway]

How about the ethics of withholding information that they know primary voters want to know about?

Need to if it touches on character. Or he could pull out of the race.

[hueylong]

They'll have to release it now that it's on Drudge.

[The One]

Anti-climactic...I just lost wood.

[jersdream]

If there is ANY meat to this story, it only helps Romney.

[hueylong]

Romney is going to have his own problems -- Millions in the Caymans.

[Lucille]

Ethics? They have no problem "reporting" blatant falsehoods about Ron Paul.

[bubbleboy]

bye bye Newty.

[lasenorita]

Like I posted in another thread, maybe it's something related to Newt's corruption?


Newt Gingrich was under FBI investigation for bribery (http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/317440)


Little known to the American public Newt Gingrich and his then wife Marianne were the subject of a US Justice Department criminal investigation in the late 1990s involving a $10 million bribe of the world’s largest private arms dealer, Sarkis Soghanalia.

Unaware that Soghanalian was an FBI informant, it is alleged that Marianne Gingrich whilst working for the Israel Export Development Corporation (IEDC) tried to facilitate a bribe to the tune of $10 million so that her husband could use his influence to lift the arms embargo against Iraq in order for Soghanalian to collect an outstanding payment of $54 million from Saddam Hussein.

[jkob]

Now they have ethics?

[reduen]

Ethics? They have no problem "reporting" blatant falsehoods about Ron Paul.

Exactly! They better come out with it.....

[thoughtomator]

whoah

[dbill27]

She spoke to ABCNEWS reporter Brian Ross for two hours. Her explosive revelations are set to rock the campaign. But now a "civil war" has erupted inside of the network, an insider claims, on exactly when the confession will air!

ABCNEWS suits determined it would be "unethical" to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary.

2-man race.

[SchleckBros]

:eek:ABCNEWS suits determined it would be "unethical" to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary.

[InTradePro]

Question.

Even if 'the interview' it's not aired is the fact that an interview exists enough to tip Newt's campaign to nose dive?

[reduen]

Liberty PAC need to get on this right away!!!

[ElizabethR]

Oh man he's got the Cain Syndrome! I hope they release it omggg

[JohnGalt23g]

Question.

Even if 'the interview' it's not aired is the fact that an interview exists enough to tip Newt's campaign to nose dive?

It might. But having it air tomorrow night would be a lot more helpful :toady:

No, people will assume it is smear until they see it. See no evil hear no evil kinda thing.

[archangel689]

Unethical. Not Gona air it. Yeah it's unethical not to air it what the fuck.

[abstrusezincate]

The word confession is interesting. It sounds like the ex-wife was part of some known wrongdoing.

[Lucille]

:eek:ABCNEWS suits determined it would be "unethical" to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary.

Maybe in opposite world! I think most voters would agree that it would be unethical NOT to air it before the primary!

[LisaNY]

scumbags. Our media is worse than North Korea.

[TheTexan]

Interesting. After Cain, and now Gingrich, maybe people will learn better than to trust liars.

[tsetsefly]

3 top things it could be, all of which would not surprise me:

1. He is a racist (constantly said racist remarks)
2. Abortion
3. Bribery charges
and just for fun:
4. SOmething involving prostitutes

[Havax]

It's only "ethical" to air anti-Paul material as fact immediately when it's completely conjecture.

[Shelton88]

ABC doesnt look like they will release it to the people. once agian media bias at its finest

[sailingaway]

Liberty PAC need to get on this right away!!!

no. We don't know what the 'bombshell' is, it might just be petty stuff that makes him look mean spirited which we all know, already. There is a concept about 'being more prejudicial than probative'. I have no idea why they would want to hide it, so I can't say.

[nasaal]

It isn't over. We need to do very well in SC and he prevents that grand finish. He'll be out sure, but only after he has caused enough damage.

She's already spilled her guts.
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/12/30/1050139/-Marianne-Gingrichs-take
(Just one interview... there are others.)

At this point, if she comes out with something too bizarre, it won't be credible as she didn't mention it before.

I think it will two hours of an ex-wife rolling her eyes, saying he cheated on her, blah, blah, blah....
I feel for the lady.
But, at the same time, apparently nobody in this country gives a shit about infidelity in marriage(s).

(I added the 's' for the benefit of those out there who might believe in polygamy... just trying to be fair.)

[Kords21]

Unethical? These "news" networks are big hypocrites. If they had footage/proff that Ron Paul wrote those newsletters it'd be out in the open yesterday. But, when it comes to an establishment figure like Newt, um we'll just sit on it, we don't want to bite the hand that feeds us. If ABC doesn't release this, then whatever credibility they may have in people's eyes will be shot. For better or worse, their wagon is now hitched to Newt.

[kahless]

:eek:ABCNEWS suits determined it would be "unethical" to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary.

Yet ABC News has in large headline plastered across their front page "Romney Parks Millions in Cayman Islands". So I guess ethics only applies to candidate of the suits choice. Clearly the suits were in the tank for Gingrich.

[CasualApathy]

The speculation alone will probably hurt Newt though, on the bright side.

[unknown]

Ethics? Networks?

???

[brandon]

Shiiiiiit. I love drudge.

[Lucille]

We should email bomb them and demand they air it. The press owes it to the voters.

[gworrel]

Ethics? Networks?

lol

[opinionatedfool]

Romney is going to have his own problems -- Millions in the Caymans.

He needs to get pressure to release the documents... NOW! April doesn't do anything for us.

[Clem Kadiddlehopper]

But the networks had no problem attempting to smear Ron Paul as a racist on the eve of the Iowa primary.

[ShaneEnochs]

Romney is laughing his head off right now.

[angelatc]

ABC. Ethics of releasing interview before primary.

As opposed to holding onto it in case they need it in the general, no doubt.

[Steele]

Reading between the lines, this story was leaked to Drudge after the suits decided to keep it under wraps. That means, others will be after Marianne Gingridge to get the story ABC suits want to suppress.

[Freedomluvinmamma30]

In the long run, if Ron Paul can go the distance, he can get the nomination. It is only time for these nominees to implode and for new people to come to the cause of liberty.

[The One]

Newt's ex-wife thinks he's an asshole and has bad things to say about him. Sorry, I'm not impressed. This is true of 99% of divorced men. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

[Paulite]

A decision was tentatively made to air the interview next Monday, after all votes have been counted.

[rfbz]

Here's what I don't understand...so it's unethical to release it before the South Carolina primary. But if they release it after the South Carolina primary then they're releasing it right before the Florida primary. So what's the difference???

NEWT EX-WIFE UNLOADS ON CAMERA; NETWORK DEBATES 'ETHICS' OF AIRING BEFORE SC PRIMARY

**Exclusive**
Wed Jan 18 2012 18:47:14 ET

Marianne Gingrich has said she could end her ex-husband's career with a single interview. Earlier this week, she sat before ABCNEWS cameras, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

She spoke to ABCNEWS reporter Brian Ross for two hours. Her explosive revelations are set to rock the campaign. But now a "civil war" has erupted inside of the network, an insider claims, on exactly when the confession will air!

ABCNEWS suits determined it would be "unethical" to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary, a curious decision, one insider argued, since the network has aggressively been reporting on other candidates.

A decision was tentatively made to air the interview next Monday, after all votes have been counted.

But the networks had no problem attempting to smear Ron Paul as a racist on the eve of the Iowa primary.

Only 20 year old newsletters that no one talked about the whole year neeeeeeeeeeed to be talked about everywhere on the eve of the primary. That's only ethical, the public needs to re-know etc.

[AlexAmore]

Haha Palin you fucked up. Nice timing. I'm so sick of Newt. I'm glad he's getting the Cain treatment. This will get him out sooner than later.

[HeyArchie]

If Paul wasn't in the race, they'd run it with no conscience.

Newt has a chance in SC, Romney pretty much has Florida all sewn up so it won't make a difference besides margin of victory at that point.

and just for fun:
4. SOmething involving prostitutes

sounds plausible

[Lord Xar]

GET ON THE HORN and CONTACT ABC NEWS and tell them that the voters have a right to know. And that by withholding this information is unethical.

[Jtorsella]

Go to drudgereport.com/flash.htm
really weird.

[robskicks]

I think it probably has something to do with homosexual tendencies.

[archangel689]

It's different if it's in shell corporations


Only because of the "perception" of having bank accounts outside the USA is evil.

Sadly, a presidential candidate can not say, "Yes, I have a portion of my wealth outside the USA, because I have no faith that at some point the US Govt will not seize it or institute a wealth tax".

It is a no-no for politicians to advise US citizens to not be susceptible to asset seizure or lawsuits.

Most any good CPA/Financial Planner that is dealing with HNW will absolutely recommend diversifying country risk... It is not illegal.

[sailingaway]

This is the state that elected Nikki Haley. http://www.google.com/search?q=nikki+haley+affair

they didn't believe it of her. Gingrich is slimy and easy to believe bad things of.

[nasaal]

If Carol had something bad to say about Paul, they'd find a way to splash it onto every computer screen in America and every news channel.

[CableNewsJunkie]

For the sake of the SC voters' dignity, they should release it ASAP.

Think about how many people will be ashamed, embarrased, and humiliated to find out this information AFTER they cast their vote for Newt - and then realize their vote was wasted. :eek:

[bolil]

This is outrageous. Perhaps a more efficient route would be to attempt contact with Marianne. How tho... how? Unless they have some kind of exclusivity contract with her...

[dbill27]

Newsflash guys! Abc has never considered not airing it! They leaked the story so there's pressure on them publicly now, when it's a dirty interview they can claim they didn't want to air it but it was leaked

[captain]

Why does she need to wait for ABC to air her interview?

I don't think there is anything there.


Exactly. Surely some other "networks" will grab onto this--but then maybe not--maybe they are all in bed together with the same boss. She can go to anyone and offer an interview....if ABC will wait, then she needs to go to someone else that will expose it today.

[Jtorsella]

Yes it is, but how did you stumble on that?
I just played around with the Url and thought they might use the same format for other breaking news. I honestly have no idea what it means.
Do you? It kind of reminds me of the seven dwarves. I am still in wtf mode.

[dancjm]

Gingrich canceled a press conference on Wednesday to deal with the matter.

"He believes that what he says in public and how he lives don't have to be connected," Marianne Gingrich, Newt's wife of 18 years, explained to ESQUIRE last year. "When you try and change your history too much, and try and recolor it because you don't like the way it was or you want it to be different to prove something new ... you lose touch with who you really are."

[thesnake742]

Newsflash guys! Abc has never considered not airing it! They leaked the story so there's pressure on them publicly now, when it's a dirty interview they can claim they didn't want to air it but it was leaked

Then whats with all this ethics talk? Wouldnt that cast a negative light on them? Would they really want to stage that?

[kill the banks]

when I hit drudge first time on flash it said something about 10$ million kick back on an arms deal ... did anyone see that ... ? newt fixed a deal

[ScotTFO]

Hopefully someone will offer her a shitload of money so they can air the interview in the next day or so on a competitive network

[bolil]

We don't want to get anywhere near it if it is nasty. Let it come out from ABC.
good point had not thought it through.

[TheTexan]

It may have nothing to do with ethics. They may have just some garbage that ends up being nothing, and are holding on to it, so the Newter gets some negative press before the primary. i.e., they want Romney to win.

We'll see I guess.

[dbill27]

Then whats with all this ethics talk? Wouldnt that cast a negative light on them? Would they really want to stage that?

They can claim they debated it and found it unethical to air and but for a leak they would have kept it quiet.

[Dr.3D]

[TheLasersShadow]

We all knew that this was going to come out eventually so why are they waiting to release this? A journalists job is to find a story, get all the details including evidence and witnesses on record, THEN report the damn story... Screw timing THE FACT THEY ARE HAVING THIS INTERNAL CONVERSATION IS PROOF OF HOW NON-JOURNALISTIC THEY REALLY ARE, PROOF THEY ARE IN FACT VERY POLITICALLY INVOLVED. Otherwise they'd just release it, if it's the truth and they didn't try to compensate her for this then it's more than legitimate!

[Schiff_FTW]

Airing this Monday is the best possible outcome for us. We want Gingrich to win South Carolina over Romney. It is the only chance to derail Romney.

[affa]

$10 million arms deal would certainly seal the deal. i'd be more than happy to see Newt go down for that.

[texasbelle]

[cstarace]

Airing this Monday is the best possible outcome for us. We want Gingrich to win South Carolina over Romney. It is the only chance to derail Romney.
Absolutely. Once Gingrich wins South Carolina, and Romney is no longer the "inevitable nominee", let whatever ethical bomb this interview is explode afterwards. Gingrich drops out, Perry drops out, and it's Santorum, Romney and Paul. Santorum very well could drop out after SC as well.

[Agorism]

links to the levin books?

[Lord Xar]

If you read more about that bribery case you find out that the Likud Party (neo-con connections to Israel) were gonna be the money holders for newt. Terrible how those neo-cons have fucked everything up.

[kill the banks]

$10 million arms deal would certainly seal the deal. i'd be more than happy to see Newt go down for that.

the 10$ M was just newts part or a huge payoff for a much larger deal in Iraq arms exchange ... to suppress the law standing at the time ... it was just there on drudge for few minutes and when I went back it was changed ?.. geez

[TheTexan]

I'd also prefer Gingrich to win SC over Romney, but I just don't see that happening. I view Gingrich as the kind of guy you can claim to support, but when you actually put pen to ballot you can't bring yourself to do it without barfing up breakfast.

[constitutionalism]

If Carol had something bad to say about Paul, they'd find a way to splash it onto every computer screen in America and every news channel.

heaven forbid!!

[The One]

That's still there too, when I checked. Just not the Headline story.


$10 million dollar kickback = small news

Newt's wife thinks he's an asshole = big news

I'd also prefer Gingrich to win SC over Romney, but I just don't see that happening. I view Gingrich as the kind of guy you can claim to support, but when you actually put pen to ballot you can't bring yourself to do it without barfing up breakfast.

I can bet you this was made by the suits before someone came running up to them "It's already on drudge!". I bet someone was msging drudge from the meeting room, so none of them knew the outside world knew until after the decision was made. Now it's out I bet they will change their mind.

[bluesc]

This is BS.

[AhuwaleKaNaneHuna]

As opposed to holding onto it in case they need it in the general, no doubt.

This all has brought the primaries, the candidates and media coverage/lack there of, to a whole new level of WTF?

but i don't think CBS and ABC gets enough "credit" for what they've done
FOX news is known to be a laughing stock to most young people, yet a lot of time, ABC and CBS are in fact much much worse
much more bias (yes that is possible) than FOX

no wonder people see CNN as trust worthy, because compare to these other bunch of crap, CNN still has tiny bit of credentials

back to topic, ABC all of a sudden think it is unethical , what a joke really

[Okie RP fan]

Levin is in panic mode trying to defend Mitt (Cayman Islands) and Newt (Marianne).

Also, Fox Nation has a story up over this and people are in full defense mode for Newt.

Perhaps it's personal stuff that could be career-ending. The possibility of abortion was brought up. Anything that's potentially worse than cheating on your cancer-ridden wife could be pretty explosive.

Also, you're making the assumption that the media actually has any sense of ethics. ABC will do whatever is in the best interest of ABC.

[Bruno]

Newt and Slick Willy also smoked cigars and drank whiskey in the White House, swapping stories of their affairs.

haha, love anti-flag!!!

[McChronagle]

Agreed. Ron can mention it in a debate.

This Newt thing is important.

i dont see ron attacking him for it because i do believe ron would say we should be allowed more freedom with our money. correct me if im wrong.

[rp2012win]

Greta just weighed in on gretawire...she said it could be explosive and ABC should not release it yet.

[blazeKing]

I mean...this is a 2 HOUR INTERVIEW

2 HOURS

That's a lot of time to air grievances.

[CasualApathy]

It will probably be condenced down to about 30-60 min for television though.

[UtahApocalypse]

I mean...this is a 2 HOUR INTERVIEW

2 HOURS

That's a lot of time to air grievances.

ABC will find a very specific 3 mins that will probably leave out everything good.

[Peace&Freedom]

As much as we may grimace at the thought of it, if Paul can't win SC, it really would be preferable for Newt to squeak out a win over Romney, than for Mitt to win it. It would break the narrative that Mitt has the race wrapped up, and the mythos that the winner of SC is unstoppable. We do need for Newt to then be knocked out of the race by his ex's revelations, and for Paul to get about 23% or more to match his other early primary performances. So, we will have by that point a thinned out field, the frontrunner humbled, and a clear path for Paul to win the upcoming caucuses.

[Merk]

I bet another network would offer her some cash for a nice sit down before the primary to scoop ABC.

[MsDoodahs]

Greta just weighed in on gretawire...she said it could be explosive and ABC should not release it yet.

Shows what a shithead Greta is, now, doesn't it?

[hueylong]

P&F is right. Newt winning SC helps interrupt the Romney narrative.

[tsetsefly]

Greta just weighed in on gretawire...she said it could be explosive and ABC should not release it yet.

Off course she would... why ruin his run now? Although not bad for us if he wins and then this is released and is as explosive as advertised...

[KramerDSP]

Howard Kurz is tweeting that his sources say there is nothing new in the Gingrich interview that Marianne hasn't said before, but that it is explosive because it becomes a TV story and just before the primary.

[blazeKing]

Newt winning SC makes him the anti-Romney candidate..it doesn't help us

[CasualApathy]

Newt winning SC makes him the anti-Romney candidate..it doesn't help us

Agreed, and the campaign has been working very hard to sell this as a 2-man race, so they must agree as well.

[cstarace]

Newt winning SC makes him the anti-Romney candidate..it doesn't help us
Not if the information within this interview is as game-changing as it's being hyped up to be.

[rideurlightning]

If it was US they would have aired it. Assholes.

[cartemj06]

if this could sink newt, and the strategy people would know the implications of that for paul, this would be on the air right now. I have to agree that this is the "cover" for the Mittens money meltdown.

[low preference guy]

Newt has been going after Romney hard, so his voters are going to be poisoned towards Romney, I very much doubt he will get a majority of them.

[Brian4Liberty]

Reading between the lines, this story was leaked to Drudge after the suits decided to keep it under wraps. That means, others will be after Marianne Gingridge to get the story ABC suits want to suppress.


if the lady has something to say, she can say it.
Why does she need to wait for ABC to air her interview?

I don't think there is anything there.


The real pressure on ABC is that some other network gets another interview and airs it before they do.


This is outrageous. Perhaps a more efficient route would be to attempt contact with Marianne. How tho... how? Unless they have some kind of exclusivity contract with her...

Hmmm. She could go to any news outlet with the story, unless there was an exclusivity contract. That would be very convenient. What if ABC paid her well and never aired the piece at all?

An ABC News executive tells The Associated Press that the network has interviewed Newt Gingrich's second wife and is likely to air the segment Thursday on "Nightline."

[SilentBull]

Where will Newt's supporters go if this thing airs on Thursday?

[GraspingForPeace]

Honestly, I think it depends on how well Ron does tomorrow in the debate. He NEEDS to get on the offensive.

[tbone717]

Where will Newt's supporters go if this thing airs on Thursday?

Scattered in my opinion. If this is huge and causes Newt to drop out before Saturday, then I honestly don't know what will happen. I do know one thing, the campaign needs to be pouring every dollar and every ounce of energy into NV, ME, CO & MN. If we work hard, and play this right we can go 4 for 4 in those states and then it is a whole new ballgame.

[lasenorita]

So Nightline will be airing a segment about Mitt Romney and the Cayman Islands tonight.


RT @BrianRoss (https://twitter.com/#!/BrianRoss): Watch Brian on @Nightline (https://twitter.com/#!/Nightline) with the latest on Mitt Romney, money and the Cayman Islands: http://abcn.ws/wZZy3O


Watch Brian on @ABCWorldNews (https://twitter.com/#!/ABCWorldNews) with the latest on Mitt Romney, money and the Cayman Islands: http://t.co/AFqPs9Lt

And then they will be airing Briann Ross' interview with Marianne Gingrich tomorrow (http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9SBN46O0&show_article=1), Thursday.

Interesting nights ahead.



Reminder: Nightline comes on at 11:35 PM. Full episodes will be available on the ABC News website (http://abcnews.go.com/watch/nightline/SH5584743).

[Okie RP fan]

We need to be cautious in thinking this will have a major effect on Newt.

Think about it. Cain's allegations didn't have too much sway on his support. However, it was the sheer amount of accusations and supposed family issues that the Cain family was experiencing, that made him drop out.

Other than that, his support thought they were cheap attacks.

Well, most of Gingrich's support will take this with a grain of salt, I bet. Depending on how bad it is, of course.

I think the difference with Cain's allegations vs. Newt's , is that Newt's are from his actual ex-wife in which everyone is aware of what Newt did, so the interview will be alot more harmful to him in my opinion. Cain's women however, were seen as people just wanting a little bit of publicity, possibly to earn money from interviews ect. , but were not taken seriously by his supporters because there wasn't a shred of evidence.

[MMXII]

Interesting choice of words from the Gingrich campaign spokesperson regarding the interview:

'The failure of a marriage is a terrible and emotional experience for everyone involved. Anyone who has had that experience understands it is a personal tragedy filled with regrets, and sometimes differing memories of events.'

Ok. "and sometimes differing memories of events." hmmm

Depends on what is brought up, but the Cain Train got nailed hard after the third woman came forward about that affair. Considering the other two accusations, it was obvious that something was up, so it was finally derailed. Hopefully, Newt's ex newters him!

Dave Weigel just tweeted the following:

Oh, that old story, everybody's heard that story, that's old news. :rolleyes: Nothing new here move along.


Maybe everyone's forgot just how corrupt Newt was, and is, and needs to be reminded. There's a whole new generation that needs to hear the Newt story.

[veto]

Question.

Even if 'the interview' it's not aired is the fact that an interview exists enough to tip Newt's campaign to nose dive?

Yep you would think this is actually worst than putting it out now. Because if it's just something that's already been said people will say, "Oh well we already knew about this". The way it is now it will be all that is all talked about until the interview is released. Every question Newt get's from the media will be about this interview and his ex-wife. Look back at the Cain Wreck for how the media will be pouncing him.

If they really want to mess with the Grench campaign ABC will say they feel they should release the interview after the GOP primary is over. No one will vote for the man thinking the left has a loaded gun on Gingrich.

[Kandilynn]

Unless her interview unveils something criminal, like he put out hits on people or buried someone in their backyard, I don't think it's going to make much difference. If voters cared about political inconsistencies, Mitt Romney wouldn't be the front runner.

[devil21]

There's a debate tomorrow too so if ABC does air it, I wonder WHEN? Compete with the debate's timeslot on CNN? Interesting.

A lot of people in some of the comments on articles seem to be assuming it's "just dirty politics". Who knows what the majority think though. My fear is that this won't be bad enough, and then he'll play the victim, get a bunch of free face time on the news, and milk it to a win in SC. The Grinch campaign letter on Drudge makes it looks like they are going to play the "family matter privacy" card.

Some people seem to think that would be good, but I'm not sure anything could be worse than him emerging as the "Romney alternative"...

I mean, THEY SHOULD, but its stuff his sheepish voters know of and dont care about. Nancy failed epically with that shit she put out some months back, sure hope his ex has something better.

Lol check out my bad ass post count :D

If there were "nothing new" in the interview, then why all the controversay over it? Seems like Newt's allies are trying to brush it off as no big deal. The odds are good that there's something in there that can damage Newt.

To make it look like he's being attacked and rally his troops. Believe it or not, a lot of the feedback on some of these articles were suggesting that there was a media conspiracy against the Grinch and all the sorts of things that are actually proven about the bias towards Paul and non-existent in his case. It was sickening. He's manipulative...if it doesn't sink him, he could end up using it some how.

Yeah there is the 10million dollar bribe from the Iraqi arms dealer he helped from his position in congress, and I am sure there is plenty more. The guy is a complete psycopath but what is even scarier is that a significant portion of the US population is willing to vote for him despite all this.

Well, when he divorced her she wrote a book which she threatened to publish. After Newt's lawyers read it they told him to give her every last penny she wanted or he would never work another day in his life. He gave her over 8 million and 50% of his income over the next 10 years. I think beyond the moral and ethical stuff, Newt has serious criminal skeletons hanging in his closet.
