Internet users surfing to www.newtgingrich.com on Wednesday found their Web browsers redirected to one of a number of sites mocking the former House speaker.
On the list of sites to which the website sent users was a Washington Post story about Newt Gingrich's campaign imploding and the website for Tiffany's & Co., the jewelry outfit where Gingrich has been much derided for having a six-figure credit line.
The website for Freddie Mac, the government-backed mortgage lender for which Gingrich's opponents claim he lobbied, is also on the list. So is the now-famous climate change ad that Gingrich filmed with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a move he has described a "one of the dumbest things I've done."
Gingrich's campaign does not own the website's domain name, and his official website is at www.newt.org.
