60 Minutes reporter Steve Kroft is in a whole lot of trouble after the National Enquirer published (and Kroft himself confirmed) a story today detailing a torrid affair between 69-year-old Kroft and 41-year-old Lisan Goines. How does one define “torrid,” you ask? Here are some of the texts the pair exchanged, per the Enquirer story and published in the New York Post:
In one sexting session, Kroft allegedly cooed to Goines, “Miss you and all that goes with it. Especially my favorite tastes and colors … pink and brown.” [Goines is African-American]
Another time, the 69-year-old newsman asked Goines, 41, “What exactly would be your preference,” the Enquirer reported.
“U all over and deep inside of me,” Goines responded.
At one point, the hard-working TV journalist, who has a son with Conant, lamented his long hours on the job, the report said.
“Working late. Just ordered out. Would rather be eating your pudding,” he allegedly wrote.
“Don’t work too hard this week bc I wanna wear you out afterward,” Goines replied.
“You got it,” Kroft responded, according to the Enquirer.
As if these alone were not enough, there’s also this absurd detail:
“The newsman — who boasted to Goines that he was the “go-to’’ interviewer for President Obama — had some particularly unusual tastes in bed, the mag said. One time, he was “pouring champagne in her behind and drinking the bubbly,” the report claims.”
Kroft gave the post a statement, saying only:
"I had an extramarital affair that was a serious lapse of personal judgment and extremely hurtful to my wife and family, and for that I have nothing but regret. My wife and I are committed to each other and are working hard to get past this, and consider it a private matter."
When it comes to proper methods of consuming pudding and champagne, everything is a public matter.
