    I am adding to comments about the CBS 60 Minutes correspondent Bob Simon. I work in Israel. We heard about the "JUST ASKING" question that ran in the New York Post's PAGE SIX last week, on Sept. 29/04: "WHICH married male network news veteran who specializes in foreign assignments has been having an affair with a female Columbia grad about 10 years younger than his daughter? Former classmates spotted the young woman with him at the Essex House more than once, and say he visited her at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville over the weekend." The key part is that he specializes in foreign assignments. I am sure it is Bob Simon. The CBS 60 Minutes show he is on is also broadcast in Israel so he is well known in Israel. About a year ago I saw him at a Jerusalem hotel with a young American woman. When I made a remark about it to someone I know in the hotel's management office he said the hotel staff knew she had been staying with Bob Simon in his hotel room there for weeks. I recognized her because she worked in our office. I am sure she must be the same "female Columbia grad" that the NY Post referred to because I remember that she went to Columbia University in New York before she came to Israel. Her name is Maia Ridberg and she is probably only about 24 years old (and you know how old Bob Simon is.) She said she left her job in Jerusalem to go traveling and I later heard that she returned to the United States to start at the University of Virginia. I did not know that Bob Simon was married until the NY post published that last week. That weekend the NY Post referred to was Yom Kippur. That is disgusting that they cheated on his wife even on Yom Kippur. Like many of you we have long thought that Bob Simon is irresponsible in his reporting about the mideast but now it is clear that he lacks integrity as a man as well.
