> [@Mr.Moto](#): > > It wasn’t just **Diogenes** - this view was widely held here, at least initially. From my next post after the one you just quoted: > [@Congressman Anthony Weiner: My Twitter account was hacked! The weiner photo is not mine!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/congressman-anthony-weiner-my-twitter-account-was-hacked-the-weiner-photo-is-not-mine/583853/35): > > I’d be a fool to swear up and down that Weiner is innocent, so I won’t do that. The post you quoted was in response to your statement that “Once the story starts changing like this, it is to cover up an embarrassing truth.” You were saying Weiner changed his story about whether or not he was in the photos, and I was saying his story had not changed to that point - he said the picture might’ve been him but he didn’t send it. That was his initial story. The story did change later because he was lying out his ass from the beginning. While I was wrong to assign any credibility to the guy (the simplest explanation by far was that he sent the pictures), any implication that I bought Weiner’s story outright is false. I said there were some issues with the allegations against him in the early stages, primarily because I trust Andrew Breitbart about as far as I can throw him, but once more facts came out it was obvious what happened. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lou-magazzu-resigns/591543)._
