Anthony Weiner, the former Democratic Congressman from New York who resigned after an online sexting scandal in 2011, has joined MWW as a member of its board of advisers.
Weiner's former communications director, Dave Arnold, joined the independent PR firm in 2011, before decamping for Virgin America in April.
MWW told the New York Post, which put Weiner's new post on its front page today, that Weiner will be a "great asset to our firm."
Weiner, who has advised the law firm Covington & Burling and served as a political pundit, ran for mayor of New York in 2013, when reports of lewd online behavior surfaced anew.
Michael Kempner, a prominent Democratic fundraiser and adviser, leads MWW.
For my first trick, I will make sure Uber/BdB is not on the front page of the Post.
