. . . and apparently she wasn’t the source of the Daily News piece.

Former madam Kristin Davis, who served three months in jail and is on five years’ probation after pleading guilty to promoting prostitution, spoke in generalities when reached by Newsday on Sunday.

“All I can say is, there is a connection,” Davis said when asked about Rodriguez, a former Mariner.

Davis declined to comment on the specific allegations, saying she does “not talk about my personal life or who I date.”

I speculated the other day in Moshe’s post about the Daily News article that Alex’s PR people might be behind the story for various reasons. Now Davis comes out today and says she doesn’t want to comment on the story. So if she’s not the source, that kind of narrows things down, no?

Alex is represented by William Morris LLC, and while they have a small stable of sports figures, most of their clients are Hollywood celebrities and musicians.  The same actors and musicians who wind up in the gossip columns every day with stories about who they’re sleeping with.

Just like Alex.

    Totally off topic here, was just curious why the Oakland A’s symbol turns up as the icon for your website on my mobile phone. . .

    No offense, but I’m not seeing your logic here Steve.

    Saying Alex wants to be in the gossip pages is one thing. Suggesting his PR team is purposefully disseminating information to the press which paints A-Rod as a guy who buys hookers and beds Manhattan madams is some LOGIC FAIL.

    Believe it or not, there’s such a thing as bad publicity. Even for Alex Rodriguez.

    I’m hoping this is not your argument…

  3. Why is this news again? I fail to understand why I should care.

    • Steve S. says:

      Nobody’s saying you should or have to. Its just a follow up piece.

      • Not questioning your post, more of a question of why are newspapers (Daily News, Star Ledger, Seattle Time) TV Shows (Sportcenter, Mike & Mike, MSNBC), talk radio covering this? What makes it “News worthy”?

        A blog post is fine because you aren’t really covering the story, you’re covering the coverage.

    Anthony, I don’t want to rehash the entire argument, but click the link and check out the comments of Moshe’s post.

    I think they’re worried about Selena Robert’s book having some stuff about Alex having a confused sexual identity. So these stories (and others) are an attempt to make him look like a heterosexual Superman. A pre-emptive strike to make people disbelieve whatever is in Selena Robert’s book.
