...resigning. When he made the same announcement on the House floor, it was his second bombshell in three days. The first was his forced confession--the media were about to out him--that "I have on occasion strayed from my marriage." Livingston gave no details, which left Hustler publisher Larry Flynt to spread around whatever he pleased. With no sign of proof, Flynt claimed four women had told his staff about past liaisons with Livingston. Flynt said he has a tape of Newt Gingrich's erstwhile successor engaging in "raunchy" phone...

...mixture of envy, awe and abhorrence: "Isn't that ridiculous--nobody needs a house that big." Or, "Just think how hard it would be to keep that thing clean." The fact that he or she has a Xanadu--and you don't--proves that the owner is a greedy hustler or a planet-polluting slumlord with close Mob ties who should be flogged into bankruptcy like Donald Trump (and, unlike him, left there...

...mixture. Lionized in the acclaimed movie The People vs. Larry Flynt, the smut publisher came across as a crusader for principle (he went to jail to uphold the First Amendment) with a self-deprecating candor (he doesn't pretend that men buy his magazine to read the profiles). But Hustler's taste for barnyard animals and meat grinders in close proximity to unairbrushed women is so gross that Gloria Steinem and Jerry Falwell found themselves on the same side against him. Still, it takes a rich pornographer with nothing to lose to give vent to the dark impulse...

WASHINGTON: Never mind Salon. Now that Hustler magazine has waded into the scandal arena, will any congressman's "youthful indiscretions" be sacred? A cool million bucks was what publisher and habitual agent provocateur Larry Flynt offered anyone with "documentary evidence" of "an adulterous sexual encounter with a current member of the United States Congress or a high-ranking government official." By taking out a full-page ad in the Washington Post Sunday, Flynt showed he's as serious as he ever gets; after all, every decent D.C. correspondent knows where the bodies are -- or were -- buried...

...couple of caveats for would-be Washington millionaires: The six-zero sum gets paid out only when and if Hustler publishes your salacious story, and Flynt reserves the right to shift the deadline forward. Assuming he doesn't, however, the offer expires on May 1, 1999 -- which gives money-hungry Monicas everywhere plenty of time to initiate the affair and get the photos developed. Interns, start your engines...
