The Anthony Weiner campaign is not talking about a new report from a website claiming to have access to new lewd online chats.

Nightlife site "The Dirty" posted images of conversations that allegedly came from Weiner to a 22-year-old girl.

The revelations blew up in the mainstream when BuzzFeed's Ben Smith posted them. Weiner's campaign for mayor did not respond to a request for comment before this story's publication.

The anonymous girl told "The Dirty" that her online relationship with Weiner lasted for six months and that he had promised her "many" things — most notably a condo in Chicago and a job at Politico, in some kind of "blogger panel." (It's worth noting that Politico's events page does not seem ot have any record of a "bloggers panel.")

The chats were posted by Nik Richie, the founder and contributing editor of The Dirty. He writes that his source is "solid." He also didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

The questions eminating from The Dirty's post is, first, whether the chats are authentic. And, if they are, the question becomes, when did they take place? The chats are not dated. Richie's source says that she carried on a relationship until August 2012 — which would be well after his resignation in June 2011.
