If Ms. Polier went to anyone or any station affiliated with ABC, this story won't see the light of day, unless someone else gets stronger news out than is currently available. When it comes to the Right, ABC stands for "Always Blast Conservatives." For the Left, it's "All Bad Concealed."

If memory serves (and it may not on this), she may have worked for ABC.
Must check her resume.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. They may hold their noses, but if it brings ratings, they'll air it (though probably a soft-focus softball interview).

This is from an article talking about Barbara Walters stepping down from ABC's 20/20:

The "get," the grab of a celebrity interview subject, is an increasingly important part of network news operations and Walters, along with ABC News colleague Diane Sawyer and NBC's Katie Couric, has been among the fiercest competitors.

Among Walters' major "20/20" interview subjects were Cuban President Fidel Castro, Christopher Reeve after his riding accident, a post-indictment Martha Stewart, Sen. Hillary Clinton about her autobiography, and Patricia Hearst.

Her March 1999 interview with Monica Lewinsky drew a staggering 48.5 million viewers.
