All stories, especially divorce stories become distorted over time. The press seems to be able to manufacture trash in order to further their (the press) agenda. The press has made up their minds who they think poses the most risk to defeat our current president and have a mission to discredit anyone who could pose such a threat.

No one in the press forced Marianne G. to talk. She was not paid to speak up, and by many accounts is a republican and a conservative, so not likely to be trying to subvert the party's chances in November. Does she have a personal agenda? Of course she does, but that does not mean she is lying. In fact newt's past behavior would indicate she is likely telling the truth. As for gingrich's friends he suggested could vouch for him -- how could anyone else know what was said between husband and wife? Newt is just the latest pol to blame the press to deflect attention from bad behavior. Sure the press likes a juicy story, and maybe some like them coming from the right more than the left, though I have seen plenty from the left as well. However, that does not make the stories fabricated, nor excuse bad behavior.
