The station is WCBS-TV, Channel 2. They mentioned it during the 5 and 6PM news today. The lesbian remark is part of their larger story about Spencer's supposed "Hillary was ugly" comments on their website here:

A columnist for the Journal News, Phil Reisman, said the episode was an example of "John Spencer being John Spencer."

Reisman has covered the former Yonkers mayor for more than a decade, and said Spencer can go beyond his "plain spoken" reputation and into the realm of profane, and politically incorrect.

Reisman said he asked Spencer last Wednesday about preparing for his two debates with Sen. Clinton.

"He was being facetious and said 'as long as I don't call her a lesbian, I'm okay,'" Reisman said.

Spencer said he didn't recall using the word "lesbian" in his discussion with Reisman, but if he died, he apologized.


The Gannette Snoozepaper is The Journal News. Nothing is on their website about it yet, but it should be in a column by Phil Reisman. The Journal News is WCBS-TV's newspaper partner.
