NYTimes article on how new NY Governor Paterson was sworn in, then promptly held a news conference, wife at his side, to disclose the other relationships he--and Michelle Page Paterson, his wife--had had during their marriage.
"“I didn’t want to be compromised, I didn’t want to be blackmailed, I didn’t want to hesitate taking an action because the person on the other end might hurt me or my family. I just thought this was the time to come forward and reveal this.”
Susa sez: Is this a new openness that will lead to more discussion about common behaviors we lie about and pretend don't happen--or an effort to stave off more harm from a conservative media and society?
