Blogger BigHeadDC might not be getting that million dollars from Larry Flynt as quickly as he first thought. Our little red-headed gay escort friend is vehemently denying any kind of relationship with Senator Lott. From Benjamin Nicholas' blog:
"It looks like a Washington DC-based blog called BigHeadDC is making claim that there was (or, is) a working relationship between myself and Senator Trent Lott. There are falsely pieced-together quotes that serve no purpose other than to sensationalize a completely fabricated scoop.
"I will continue to offer a great sense of confidentiality to the people I see. I have not, nor have I ever seen or had contact with Senator Trent Lott. It’s as simple as that. It never happened."
There's quite a bit to be read into that second part. And if someone was offering us that kind of money for uncovering sex scandals (technically, Flynt was offering it to anyone, so it could have been us) we might have worked a little harder to dig up some Republican gossip, too. Not that we're ruling out the possibility of this being true, because we love us a good sex scandal!
