Nude photos and death threats: Scandal topples Alaska mayor

Ethan Berkowitz, the top elected Democrat in Alaska, submitted his resignation to the Anchorage Assembly on Tuesday night, just days after he vehemently denied allegations by YourAlaskaLink anchor Maria Athens that he had posted nude photos of himself on an underage website. The mayor's resignation followed Berkowitz’s jaw-dropping admission Monday that he was involved in an inappropriate sexting — he called it “messaging" — relationship with Athens, the anchor of a combined Fox/ABC station in Anchorage.
