I might as well include this story about a purported affair between married legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin and the daughter of another CNN flak, Jeff Greenfield.

Supposedly there was a baby produced from the illicit affair:

The ex-lovers barely spoke in the waiting area before joining their lawyers behind closed doors with a court referee to hash out custody and money issues.

Toobin, who glumly sat several rows away from Casey Greenfield before the hearing, is said to have privately admitted to fathering the child, believed to have been born last summer, sources said.

A friend of Greenfield's said the outspoken Toobin has resisted putting his name on the infant's birth certificate and hasn't given his former lover the child support she's requested.

Greenfield, who wore a magenta blouse and dark tailored suit, has responded by refusing to let Toobin see the baby, the source said.

The ex-lovers and their lawyers declined all comment.
