The Daily Outs Early Herman Cain Accuser as Scandal Spreads

Cain attacks first woman to publicly step forward with charges of unwanted sexual advances as name of earlier accuser surfaces

News Corp.’s tablet publication The Daily on Tuesday became the first publication to reveal the name of one of the women to accuse Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain of sexual harassment — and other outlets quickly followed suit.

Her name spread as Cain, who had earlier vowed to stop talking about the matter, lashed out at the first woman who went public with her accusations. In an interview with ABC and Yahoo News! Tuesday, Cain deemed all allegations of miscondunct "baseless, bogus and false."

On Monday, Sharon Bialek stepped forward in a press conference with Gloria Allred, becoming the first public face of the charges and contributing a fourth case of alleged sexual harassment on the part of the GOP presidential nominee.
