Anthony Weiner Should Resign After Twitter Scandal Barack Obama said in a tv Interview.
Weiner accidentally sent a lewd and very public image to a female follower on Twitter; he had intended to send the message privately. The Congressman, who is married and has served in the House of Representatives since 1999, then proceeded to lie about the incident.
“Last Friday night I tweeted a photograph of myself that I intended to send as a direct message as part of a joke to a woman in Seattle,” Weiner stated. “Once I realized I had posted to Twitter, I panicked, I took it down and said I had been hacked. I then continued to stick to that story which was a hugely regrettable mistake.
