WASHINGTON — A conservative website that last week started a furor over a lewd photo sent from a New York congressman's Twitter account posted new photos Monday purportedly from a second woman who said she received shots of a shirtless Rep. Anthony Weiner.

Meanwhile, another website said a woman had also received hundreds of explicit text messages from Weiner, who spent last week in a media furor over the provocative photos.

Weiner scheduled a news conference for later Monday in New York City.

BigGovernment.com, a website run by conservative activist Andrew Breitbart, said the new photo was in a cache of intimate online photographs, chats and email exchanges the woman claimed to have. The website did not identify the woman, and it could not immediately be determined if the photo was authentic.

Another photo showed Weiner on a couch with two cats nearby. The website said Weiner sent the photo using the anthonyweiner(at)aol.com account with the subject line "Me and the pussys."

The celebrity website RadarOnline.com said a woman claimed to have 200 sexually explicit messages from Weiner through a Facebook account that Weiner no longer uses. It was not clear whether the woman who claimed to have the new photo was the person who claimed to have received the text messages.

Weiner's spokesman did not immediately respond to messages left by The Associated Press, and several calls to his cell phone were unanswered.

Weiner has said his Twitter account was hacked and that he'd hired a lawyer and a private security firm to get to investigate the incident involving the underwear shot. But he could not say for sure if the underwear photo was of him.

The photo purportedly showing Weiner shirtless was reminiscent of a photo of former Rep. Chris Lee, a New York Republican who resigned from office earlier this year after a shirtless photo he sent a woman on Craig's List became public.

Weiner, 46, married Clinton aide Huma Abedin last July, with former President Bill Clinton officiating. Before that, Weiner had been known as one of New York's most eligible bachelors.
