The Reno Gazette-Journal is reporting that Gov. Jim Gibbons and his family will meet this weekend to discuss the future of his marriage to Dawn.
Dianne Cornwall, a senior member of the staff, confirmed the meeting. I've just confirmed with a source close to Gibbons that this is indeed the case.
The source also expressed incredulity that someone from the staff would confirm this story, echoing the comments of Sun columnist Jon Ralston, who just informed his email newsletter subscribers.
Gibbons’ son, who is taking final exams at the Merchant Marine Academy this week, is set to arrive home Saturday. Clearly the family had planned to keep the story quiet until then.
In the past 24 hours, two bloggers — one here and another in Washington — have written of the rumors, which have been widespread recently.
Let's review. This is the same Governor accused of sexual assualt during a 6 hour binge of drinking and skirt chasing with Sig Rogich at McCormick and Schmidt.
I am still surprised we elected this goof ball, not at all surprised his wife has had enough of it.
Wonder how many '6 hour Sig meetings' she put up with before she said "Enough!".
GOD, if a staff worker confirms the story, then it is news. It is not a "cheap personal attack". I don't see how you can say the press is printing "inflamatory gossip" about this story and take opposite view of the press not printing enough stories about the terrible death of the ice cream truck woman in Henderson.
I on the other hand was printing inflammatory gossip. True but still gossip.
Dear Sun editors: You are a private company, I urge you to not run posts by persons who use self-agrandizing or offensive pseudonyms. You would not hire a reporter who signed their byline as such, nor would you run a letter to the editor signed in the same way. Please demand the same level of civility from your blog posters. Unless GOD is truly the supreme being, or the child of Grace Slick, I think they are fradulently representing themselves.
