Former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer is back in the media – this time as a member of it. Last night, the online magazine Slate posted Spitzer's first column , which argues against government bailouts to financial institutions. Spitzer's semimonthly column will focus on the financial crisis, regulation and government. Spitzer resigned earlier this year after getting caught in a prostitution scandal. Last month, federal prosecutors announced they would not bring criminal charges against him.

The prostitute at the center of the scandal that led to the resignation of former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer has apologized to his wife. Ashley Alexandra Dupre tells People magazine she was stricken by the pained expression on Silda Wall Spitzer's face on March 12 as the governor left office. Her message to Mrs. Spitzer is: "I'm sorry for your pain." Dupre says the FBI told her in early March they were investigating one of her clients. She found out which client when she recognized Spitzer on TV resigning. Dupre says she's now in psychotherapy.

A woman accused of booking clients for a prostitution ring has pleaded guilty in the federal probe that brought down former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer. Temeka Rachelle Lewis pleaded guilty today to promoting prostitution and money laundering. The 32-year-old is among four defendants in the case involving the Emperor's Club VIP call-girl ring. Court papers say the FBI secretly recorded conversations between Lewis and Spitzer about a Feb. 13 tryst with a prostitute named "Kristin" in Washington. The former governor is identified in the court papers as Client No. 9. Spitzer announced his resignation March 12. He has not been charged.

Spitzer? I didn't even touch her!
