A spokesman for state attorney general Eliot Spitzer yesterday denied that the attorney general had threatened John Whitehead, who is the chairman of the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation and a former chairman of Goldman Sachs. In a commentary entitled “Scary” in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal, Mr. Whitehead said Mr. Spitzer threatened him over the phone in April. The threats, he said, followed the publication of his Journal op-ed “Mr. Spitzer Has Gone Too Far,” which was critical of the attorney general’s handling of the investigation of AIG and its chief executive, Maurice “Hank” Greenberg, who was forced out in March.
