Update: Rep. Anthony Weiner held a tearful press conference early Monday evening where he told the press he in fact sent a lewd photo of himself to a young woman on Twitter. He apologized to his wife, staff and to the media. A video of his statement is up here.
Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) has scheduled a press conference for Monday at 4 p.m., presumably in response to a series of shirtless photos of the congressman posted on the conservative website BigGovernment.com this afternoon.
According to the site, the photos came from a woman who says the congressman sent them to her.
Weiner is coming off a tough week of dancing around questions about a photo of a man's crotch that appeared on his Twitter account. He maintains he didn't send the tweet, but could not say "with certitude" whether the photograph was of him.
