tell-all interview" with an unnamed American TV network. Alex Polier

intern for Kerry and journalist who has written for the Associated Press,
granted the interview near Christmas to discuss her alleged relationship
with the Democratic senator from Massachusetts. The Sun says the network
is holding onto the the tape until it corroborates her story with more
evidence. According to the report, a source at the network stated, "She
wants to tell her story. She has talked at length about her relationship
with Kerry. But no one is believing her."
-
- As WorldNetDaily has reported, Kerry has dismissed allegations
of infidelity published last week by the Drudge Report . Radio talk-show
host Don Imus, who has endorsed Kerry for the Democratic presidential nomination,
asked the Massachusetts senator if anything in the Drudge allegations or
in his past should cause him to withdraw support. "Well, there is
nothing to report," said Kerry on the "Imus in the Morning"
show.
-
- "So there is nothing to talk about. I'm not worried
about it. No." Drudge reported several major news outlets are engaged
in a serious investigation of Kerry's relationship with a former Associated
Press reporter. The AP, Time magazine, ABC News and the Washington Post
have been working on a story about a woman who began a two-year relationship
with the Massachusetts senator in the spring of 2001, Drudge said. Meanwhile,
Misha Schubert, a former classmate of Polier from the Columbia School of
Journalism, says it's hard to believe the allegations of an affair between
Polier and Kerry. "For one thing," writes Schubert in today's
Australian , "at the time my former journalism-school classmate was
supposed to be sharing intimate moments with the senator, she was working
up to 80 hours a week on student assignments and dating one of our classmates.
-
- If she had time to manage an affair as well, that would
have made her one hell of an overachiever." Polier, decribed as having
"the perkiness of a cheerleader and the ambition of a Hollywood starlet,"
was voted one of the graduates "most likely to be sent an anthrax
letter" in their reporting career, writes Schubert, "although
it's unclear if this should be interpreted as malice or flattery."
-
- Shubert says Polier predicted in ten years, she would
be "having babies and covering wars." Polier is said to be in
Kenya at the present time with her fiance Yaron Schwartzman. She has recently
become the subject of chat groups on the Internet, and even has at least
one website chronicling some of the media coverage surrounding her. "This
is not going to go away," a friend of Polier told the London Telegraph.
"What actually happened is much nastier than is being reported."
