You really mean to tell me you don't know Weiner is lying?
Here try this one from porn star Ginger Lee:

Ginger Lee’s tweet said: You know it’s a good day when you wake up to a DM from @RepWeiner. (I’m a fangirl, y’all, he’s my trifecta of win.)

[NOTE: DM is a Twitter abbreviation for Direct Message, in which a tweet is sent privately and only to the one recipient. To send a DM, the person you wish to message must be following you on Twitter. Ginger must have been following @RepWeiner for him to DM her. He would not necessarily have to have been following her to send the DM. However, a tweet was publicly broadcast by @patriotusa76 back on April 12 saying that Weiner only followed 91 people at that time, and it names "PORN star Ginger Lee" as one of them.

Yours is the first posting I’ve seen since this story broke explaining what a DM is and the part it plays in Twitter. Thank you!

He was following tons of young women on Twitter. Who knows how many more DM's might have been sent?...

I was just telling my hubby that I thought Weiner might have meant to send her that pic via a DM put posted it on his publci twitter by mistake.

I’ve done that myself (minus an offending picture).
