Journalist breaks silence to deny affair with Kerry

A WOMAN who has been the subject of rumours linking her to Senator John Kerry last night denied she ever had an affair with the Democratic presidential candidate.

Breaking her silence four days after the allegations surfaced on the internet, Alexandra Polier issued a statement to The Associated Press, saying, "I have never had a relationship with Senator Kerry, and the rumours in the press are completely false."

Mr Kerry has already denied reports he had an extramarital affair. His campaign said he would have no further comment.
