...akin to saying it's not the winter, it's the cold that bothers me. No, it is sex, in and of itself, that occupies us, the lying being a collateral offense. A visitor from another planet reading the papers recently about First Lieut. Kelly Flinn, Marv Albert, Frank Gifford, Michael Kennedy and Paula Jones would think that our national pastime was not baseball but the Playboy channel. The day after the Supreme Court ruled that Paula Jones' lawsuit could go forward, the story led most major newspapers, above the announcement by Boris Yeltsin at the NATO summit that...
...Gifford, too, has a reputation as a gentleman. He is so devoted to third wife Kathie Lee and their two children (Cody, 7, and Cassidy, 3) that he regularly charters a plane after Monday-night games so that he can be in their Greenwich, Conn., home when they wake up Tuesday mornings. According to a story in Johnson's own words in this week's Globe, it was on a commercial flight in October 1993 that she and Gifford began a flirtatious relationship that continued over the phone. "Some people would call our talks phone sex," she writes. "But that...

A broadcaster's connection to the audience is based on trust, and neither Albert nor Gifford will ever seem the same...
...initial story revealing Gifford's infidelity, in the May 20 issue of the Globe, is what editorial director Dan Schwartz calls the "conservative version." But when Kathie Lee lashed out at the tabloid, predicting it would soon publish a story about the alien baby she and her television co-host Regis Philbin would be having, the Globe shifted into a lower gear, publishing pictures of Gifford and Johnson groping each other, along with the steamy dialogue between the two. In the latest issue, Johnson begs Kathie Lee to forgive Frank...
While Globe editor Tony Frost maintains his sheet did nothing wrong--"We will never turn our backs on the truth or our readers"--people at the rival Enquirer are shocked, shocked. "Without the Globe basically pimping this woman," says Steve Coz, editor of the Enquirer, "Frank Gifford would not have been in that hotel room. This is the most heinous act that I've ever seen in journalism. When you set out to entrap Frank Gifford, you are basically setting out to destroy his marriage." Without engaging in a debate about the Globe's ethics or Gifford's morals...
