Was Anthony Weiner Targeted by FOX and Breitbart?

[Howey]

I heard something about this yesterday and decided to check it out. Apparently following this Roger Ailes and Glenn Beck enlisted the help of Andrew Breitbart to bring down the Congressman.

After months of fulminating from afar, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) on Thursday finally got to grill a top executive of a gold coin company whose paid endorsers include Glenn Beck, Laura Ingraham and Fred Thompson.

Weiner grew red-faced while slamming Scott Carter, executive vice president of Goldline International, for inaccurately portraying the value of the gold coins the company sells to its customers, many of whom hear about the company from its ads on Fox News and conservative talk radio shows. Several of the ads include the show hosts themselves explaining why buying from Goldline is a good investment.

Weiner released a report in May accusing the company of profiting off the fears of conservatives who worry that President Barack Obama’s administration will destroy the American economy. He and Beck have traded shots over the company’s practices, with Weiner saying Beck should be “ashamed of himself,” while Beck, on the O’Reilly Factor, challenged Weiner to call him to testify before Congress.

Seems like Weiner's also the victim of earlier faked videos and pics...

Are these newly discovered hidden camera videos of Weiner?  A Weiner tipper thinks so...

This is what makes the crotch shots even stupidier.
I am not faulting him for sending his dick all over the internet, I fault him for being stupid about it.
I used to date a girl who had a webcam. We did shit over the webcam with each other. I was smart enough to make sure my face was never on camera. I knew better even back then, and I was not pissing off powerful people. (incase I ever run for office, the above statement is strictly hypothetical and the naked person on the webcam was my roommate, not me.)
If he wanted to send his scwhanz over the net, he sould have used an untraceable yahoo account and a disposable phone. Shit, if he did it that way, he could even said he was Congressman Weiner because noone could prove it.

Did he really ever say it was him? All he said was he did some stupid things, right?

Picture this scenario: The FOX gang and Breitbart get together and decide to find a cute (hey, black would be even better!) chick to converse with Weiner on Twitter, and set up the scenario. Hell, I'll bet James O"Keefe's involved, too. Yeah, Weiner's not perfect and neither is anyone else. He falls for it, but doesn't send the pic of his dick, even though he sent the one of him and his cat and the other one where he's holding up the paper "Me".

Then FOX and Breitbart concoct the story and all hell breaks loose.

Why isn't that plausible? FOX and Breitbart have more of a history of this shit than Weiner.

Since then, Beck has been on something of a rampage. Beck has accused Weiner of engaging in McCarthyism and conspiring with the Obama administration to shut him down. And on Wednesday during his radio show, Beck asked his listeners to send in doctored photos of the congressman showing him with "his nose as a wiener." He said he welcomed any "Weiner facts" or photos of the congressman "in front of the wienermobile in front of his house, with his wiener dog, with his little wiener children." (Media Matters has the clip here.) Submissions could be sent to a new website Beck just set up, www.weinerfacts.com, which seems to have crashed almost immediately after he called for the photos.
