"...the IRS, which apparently leaked her confidential tax returns to the late New York Daily News reporter Lars Erik Nelson.

In a September 1997 column Nelson revealed details from Jones' filing to bolster claims that she was profiting from her sexual harassment lawsuit against Clinton.

In a subsequent interview with NewsMax.com's Carl Limbacher (then with the Washington Weekly), Nelson insisted somewhat implausibly that a "friend" of Jones had come across her tax return during a visit to her home and decided to go public with the secrets."

Speakng from experience, at least Lars Erik Nelson was good for one thing, if one hapened to find oneself out of toilet tissue, one of his columns would come in quite handy...

Good reporters don't reveal their confidential sources. It is the life blood of investigative reporting. They don't lie about their sources either. But then again, no ever mistook Lars Erik Nelson for a good reporter (or columnist, for that matter).

I try not to speak ill of the dead, so I'm just going to shut up.
