NEW YORK – from www.cbsnews.com – A lewd photograph of a crotch sent from the Twitter account of U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner is just “a distraction” perpetrated by a hacker, his spokesman said Sunday.

Dave Arnold told The Associated Press in an email that the tweet, directed at a woman, was “a distraction” from the married New York Democrat’s “important work representing his constituents.”

“Anthony’s accounts were obviously hacked,” Arnold said. “He doesn’t know the person named by the hacker, and we will be consulting on what steps to take next.”

The photo showed a man’s bulging underpants.

It first was reported Saturday by BigGovernment.com, a website run by conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart. The site said the photo was tweeted to a Seattle woman.

The photo was quickly deleted.

For her part, the woman who allegedly received the photos also said Rep. Weiner was almost certainly not responsible. In a statement, Genette Cordova said “The account that these tweets were sent from was familiar to me; this person had harassed me many times after the Congressman followed me on Twitter a month or so ago. Since I had dealt with this person and his cohorts before I assumed that the tweet and the picture were their latest attempts at defaming the Congressman and harassing his supporters.

After being called everything from “Anthony Weiner’s 21-year-old coed mistress” to the person responsible for the hack, and after her friends and family were also allegedly harassed, Cordova said: “All of this is so outlandish that I don’t know whether to be pissed off or amused, quite frankly.”

Weiner later joked about the account hacking on Twitter, asking whether his kitchen blender would be next to “attack” him.

Weiner represents New York’s 9th District, which covers parts of Queens and Brooklyn, where he was born and raised. He failed in a 2005 bid for the Democratic nomination for mayor of the city but still is widely considered a contender for the office.

He has worked on issues including public housing, homeland security and energy for his constituents.

Weiner, 46, is married to Huma Abedin, an aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Back story: from www.nbcnewyork.com – Brooklyn Congressman Anthony Weiner could only try to find humor in the situation he found himself in Friday night when his Twitter account was hacked and a lewd photo posted under his account.

The photo showed a man’s crotch in gray briefs, and was directed to a single Twitter user — a female college student in the Pacific Northwest, according to the New York Post — but Weiner’s 45,000 followers were able to see it in their Twitter feeds.

Weiner saw the picture almost immediately, just minutes after tweeting about a hockey game. He pulled the photo down.

About 15 minutes later, he joked in a new tweet, “Tivo shot. FB hacked. Is my blender gonna attack me next? #TheToasterIsVeryLoyal.”

A computer hacker had apparently gained access to Weiner’s Facebook and Twitter accounts and posted the picture, a spokesman for Weiner told the Post.

The photo does not belong to Weiner and wasn’t taken by him, the spokesman said.

The spokeman, Dave Arnold, said Weiner, a Democrat, received an email about a week ago warning him his Facebook account may have been hacked. But the message went ignored, giving the hacker access to Weiner’s online accounts.

Arnold later told the Associated Press Sunday the Twitter episode was “a distraction” from the congressman’s “important work representing his constituents.”

It first was reported Saturday by BigGovernment.com, a website run by conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart.

Weiner said in another tweet Sunday night, “Touche Prof Moriarity. More Weiner Jokes for all my guests! #Hacked!”
