Whats Hot On TV

The woman behind the Eliot Spitzer scandal, Ashley Dupree, is being interviewed tonight on 20/20, and from reading a little of the interview beforehand at abc.com, it’s definitely fascinating. One of the interesting things she explains is how a middle class girl ended up working for a high end escort service. She claims she was shocked watching the news and seeing him resigning from office, having never connected the dots before.
