Washingtonienne
March 5, 2008 – 8:41 pm
In 2004, a Senate aide named Jessica Cutler kept a very explicit blog titled “Washingtonienne”, in which she detailed her sexual escapades. One of those men listed on the blogs was another aide named Robert Steinbuch, and he was quite upset to find that kind of information on her site.
In typical Streisand Effect fashion, Mr. Steinbuch waited until most people had forgotten about this story only to have to bring it up in court. The reason was to “restore his good name”, but this had the reverse effect as now a whole new group of people got to hear the sordid details.
Court TV has a more detailed article about this, and Wonkette has a copy of all of the blog entries.
