This was "published" in "The Hill":
Big Dig
Sen. Kerry under microscope of Boston Globe reporters
Presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) will be the subject of a multipart investigative series soon to appear in The Boston Globe. Several months ago, the paper assigned a team of reporters to dig through Kerrys legislative, political and personal lives, said a Globe source.
The Globe reported earlier this year that Kerrys grandparents were Jewish and not Irish Catholic, as many assumed they were.
That news was uncovered by the papers special team and deemed too hot to hold.
One story being examined for the upcoming series involves Kerrys brief fling in the 1980s with a young British journalist working in Washington. Dates planned around his tight schedule often began late at night, after political functions where the bachelor lawmaker eagerly seeking gravitas couldnt afford to be seen in the company of an attractive 25-year-old reporter.
The woman soon tired of the arrangement and dumped Kerry for a member of Pink Floyd.

"...after the senator returned home from having drinks with a Globe reporter at the fab Four Seasons hotel."
WTF! This doesn't sound at all presidential, Jones!

NY POST/DAVID K. LI
EXCERPT
--Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) is rebuffing claims that he skipped the funeral of
his state's first casualty in Iraq to attend a fund-raiser for his presidential
campaign. Kerry was addressing the Arizona Democratic Caucus last week when
22-year-old Matthew Boule of Dracut was laid to rest. But Kerry's camp insists
he did not put his bid for the White House ahead of the Boule family's grief.
"Sen. Kerry was unable to attend the funeral and spoke with the family of Spec.
Boule to express his condolences," said spokesman Tony Wyche. He added that
Kerry was not fund-raising, but launching a policy initiative on prescription-
drug reform for veterans. Kerry himself served in Vietnam. Such is the scrutiny
on the man who would be President. The Boston Globe is working up a series
about the candidate that will revisit his bachelor days. Among the morsels: His
relationship with British gin heiress Emma Gilbey (now married to The New York
Times' Bill Keller) is reputed to have ended when she took a fancy to Pink
Floyd guitarist David Gilmour. We asked Wyche if he cared to comment on this
lighthearted issue. "It may be lighthearted to you," Wyche intoned, declining
to elaborate.
