ABC News has decided to air its interview with Newt Gingrich's ex-wife Marianne Gingrich on Thursday's Nightline and a portion on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer.In an interview with ABC's Brian Ross, her first since the couple's 1999 divorce, Marianne says that Newt lacks the moral character to be President, claiming that he sought an open marriage while the couple was married so that he could continue an affair with Callista, to whom he is now married.
ABC News reportedly debated whether to air the interview with Marianne's accusations before the South Carolina primary on Saturday, according to a story on the Drudge Report Wednesday. The network received a letter from Newt's two daughters urging it not to focus on the past, but as of press time had not received an official comment from the Gingrich campaign on the accusations.
Marianne is Newt's second ex-wife; the pair was married for 18 years. Newt has said during the campaign that he has "no relationship" with her.

The media is "twisting the words" Marianne didn't come right out and say Newt wanted an open marriage; she said he wanted her to "accept the affair". BIG DIFFERENCE!. YOU ARE SO BIASE AND SO IN LOVE WITH OBAMA THAT YOU WILL AIR ANYTHING! My question to you is HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY FOR THIS INTERVIEW?

This is the least of his cries against this nation - Newt for Prisoner - He and his ilk are responsible for the crash - we all suffer at the hands of this maniac- He must be styopped even if it means nominating that animatronic figure Mittens Romney

What happened months ago when Newt decided to run for president! Why did't she talk then. Seems to me that she is just jealous and a scorned woman who needed money to say something bad now that he might win the nomination. Didn't hear from her when he was speaker of the house!! I'm sorry, but people go through divorces every day, some get over it and some don't. I'd tell her to move on with her life. His own children have nothing to say!! Is she really going to make a difference? I don't think so!!

I'm glad Marianne came out to expose Newt's character and non-morals. If your wife can't trust you then, we sure can't. He only wants this job so he can buy more jewelry for his now wife. Who would want a husband thief for First Lady? She has no morals and neither does he. Nor do I want a president who never grew up. He is too immature to be the boss of anything, not to mention Newt was a part of ripping taxpayers off with Fannie and Freddie. If you want to look at where part of the money is at that we are forced to pay for, just look at the jewelry on his new wife's body. We've already got two crooks in the White House. We don't need anyone else that wants to live the life of luxury.
