OLYMPIC MEDALIST SAYS SHE HAD RELATIONSHIP WITH N.Y. GOVERNOR

Two days after David Paterson — Eliot Spitzer's replacement — announced he had cheated on his wife, an Olympic gold medalist claims she also got chummy with the new governor of New York.

Track and field runner Diane Dixon of Brooklyn tells the New York Post that Paterson is "mostly responsible" for helping her land a job at the city's Department of Education.
