Top Anthony Weiner Aide Goes On Stunning Expletive-Laden Rant About Former Campaign Intern

REUTERS/Shannon Stapleton A spokeswoman for New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner went on an expletive-laden rant at a former campaign intern who had written an unflattering portrayal of the campaign in the New York Daily News.

Here is what Weiner spokeswoman Barbara Morgan called the former intern, Olivia Nuzzi, in comments to Talking Points Memo's Hunter Walker: "bitch," "slutbag," "twat," and "cunt." She also threatened to sue her.

What prompted this? Nuzzi wrote a piece in the Daily News published Tuesday morning that served as a tell-all.

She wrote that many interns joined the Weiner campaign to get closer to his wife, Huma Abedin, with hopes of landing a role on any potential campaign for Hillary Clinton in 2016. She said that one campaign staffer had left because he had only been paid one-third of what he was promised. And she said that Weiner had incorrectly referred to multiple interns as "Monica."

We emailed Morgan to see if she intended her comments to be seen.

Her response: "NO NO NO NO NO"
