Wow. Could Trent Lott's resignation actually be due to Larry Flynt's comments on Fox News? At first, it was just a paranoid connection circulating the blogosphere and, granted, it still remains to be seen whether Flynt is playing a prank on us. But, Flynt's blog had this to say on the matter: "HUSTLER Magazine has received numerous inquiries regarding the involvement of Larry Flynt and HUSTLER in the resignation of Trent Lott. Senator Lott has been the target of an ongoing HUSTLER investigation for some time now, due to confidential information that we have received." Furtheremore, e-mail and other records confirm that Lott and a homosexual male escort have met on at least two occasions.
