We always thought the Post hated Spitzer the most, but hours before Eliot Spitzer makes his CNN talk show co-hosting debut, the Daily News has a story slamming him: "As the disgraced former Luv Gov weighs in on the national and state issues of the day, more should remember what a dismal governor Spitzer was before his dalliance with call girls became public." more ›

Director Alex Gibney's untitled, work-in-progress Eliot Spitzer documentary will be screened during the Tribeca Film Festival this weekend, and the movie's star may be in the audience, the film's publicists tell Politico. We can't imagine why he'd want to sit through an exposé on the prostitution scandal that ended his administration, but then again, we can't believe he agreed to talk about the scandal on camera for the documentary, either.

We wouldn't want to regulate an industry that has just destroyed our economy." It's a pretty great interview; watch below and wonder how things might have been different if our political culture's hypocritical puritanism hadn't forced Spitzer out over some stupid (okay, fine, technically illegal) infidelities. more ›

The thoroughbred's owner is Marylou Whitney, an upstate Republican with another horse named "Ninth Client." more ›
