Which media source outed Larry Craig?

Question

This guy was arrested all the way back in June for hitting on a cop at a Minneapolis airport restroom (you know the story). He pleaded guilty, without even hiring a lawyer, ostensibly to make the whole thing go away quickly and quietly. He almost got away with it, but somebody blew his cover (no pun intended) a few days ago Which media source was it that first picked up the story?

Answer 1

Idaho Statesman newspaper.

Answer 2

Good question. Larry Craig has been "newsworthy" for many decades now, well before he became a Senator, so it seems surprising that he was able to keep his arrest quiet for a few weeks.

In fact, he's been in the public eye since he was a teenager, according to a site called FirstMention:

so he certainly should know how to conduct himself in public places. Perhaps some of the folks on the "Youth Tour" he was part of when he was 16 could shed some light on the matter.

Answer 3

Craig was outed a year ago, not a few days ago - by a gay blogger (I don't remember his name, you can find in Google).
