DC Call-Girl Ring Madam Subpoenas Dick Morris "c/o B. O'Reilly at Fox News"

WP

Though Morris had admitted publicly that he hired prostitutes from more than one agency, it's unclear whether he has any connection to Pamela Martin and Associates, the call-girl agency run by Deborah Jeane Palfrey, who is charged with federal racketeering and money laundering.

But that hasn't stopped the lawyer for the alleged madam from serving a subpoena on Morris - at the wrong place of business, in a move that had all the markings of a publicity stunt - to give a deposition on information, if any, he may have about the call-girl service.

Back to Morris, it's really unclear whether he even received the subpoena, which was sent by Palfrey's attorney, Montgomery Blair Sibley. The subpoena was delivered by a process server to "Dick Morris c/o Bill O'Reilly" at Fox News in New York. According a copy of the affidavit of service, obtained Yours Sleuthly, the subpoena was given to someone identified in the affidavit as a "co-worker" named "Stephanie Minovici. The affidavit says the "co-worker" was asked if Fox News was Morris's "actual place of business" and that the response was "affirmative."

Oddly, a spokeswoman for Fox News would not answer questions about Morris or his relationship with the network. A source inside the company, however, tells us Morris is not a "paid contributor" to Fox. He is, however, listed here as a "political analyst and regular contributor to FNC."
