Briley? It's not his divorce . . .

I don't want to nitpick this story ("Local attorney may battle Briley for District 52 seat" on Nashville City Paper)about Nashville attorney Mike Stewart's decision to run for a seat currently held by Rob Briley, but this sentence really annoyed me: :

"Stewart is not alone. At least one other local lawyer announced his intention to run earlier last week, and Briley’s decision about whether to seek re-election is still up in the air after a year that included a very high-profile DUI conviction and an accompanying personal scandal centered on his recent divorce."

(emphasis mine). Later in the story, Clint Brewer references Briley's alleged extramarital affair with a lobbyist to the House committee chaired by Briley, but some people will never read that far into the story . . .
