Democrat Anthony Weiner is married and sent private pictures to a female fan that wasn’t his wife.

Maybe they were thinking of a re-pubican.

An-tiny Weiner is definitely not a Republican. Compared to the modern day Republican, he’s not liberal enough.

LOL.. And then the story doesn’t even mention (anywhere) that he’s a Democrat. Too funny. Just like last week’s story on Edwards. Not one mention of Democrat.

I have a feeling that whoever wrote the original headline was not familiar with the American political terms. Perhaps the draft was ‘Rep. Weiner’, and the person (the editor?) wanted to be clear so s/he changed it into Republican Weiner. I see that the updated version uses ‘Rep. Weiner’.

"Democrat Anthony Weiner is married and sent private pictures to a female fan that wasn’t his wife."

POST OF THE DAY.

Straight to the point. Every FReeper should strive to write that directly.

It didn’t.
But they finally fixed it at their site.
Reuters, for when you don’t care enough about reporting to be accurate.

Well, sort of... now the headline is:
"Rep. Weiner uncertain whether lewd photo was of him"

They probably figure many liberals will read that as "Republican". Naturally they don't mention Democrat anywhere in the article.

uhhhh....I hate to have to be the one to tell you this, but...
“Rep.” in this case, does not mean “republican, it means “representative”.

The first story that pops up says
ABC News
Rep. Weiner uncertain

Rep doesn’t mean Republican, it means Representative.
