The reluctant entry of another woman into the Paula Jones case hardly created a ripple. And when speculation that New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani might be having an affair surfaced last week in Vanity Fair, followed by the tabloids, it sparked not so much a feverish rush of readers to newsstands as a snippy debate in the New York press about standards of proof. Just as it now takes an airborne President punching out terrorists for a movie...
