TMZ Hits the Hill

Harvey Levin, TMZ's founder, says politicians are now prime targets for his roving band of ambush artists, who are usually chasing the likes of Jessica Simpson and Amy Winehouse.
The brief interviews with Beltway politicians have been in a lighter vein, and nobody would confuse them with serious journalism.
On Tuesday, for instance, TMZ aired a segment in which its Washington reporter asked members of Congress at Reagan National Airport what kind of mattress he should use if he wanted to stash his money underneath. "I'd say a Serta sleeper," said Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio). "I use a cot," said Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah). "I don't think you should keep it in your mattress," Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) dissented.
