Monica Lewinsky: Roger Ailes’s Dream Was My Nightmare
By MONICA LEWINSKYMAY 22, 2017
This is not another obituary for Roger Ailes, who died last week a year after being ousted at Fox News. It is, I hope, instead an obituary for the culture he purveyed — a culture that affected me profoundly and personally.
Just two years after Rupert Murdoch appointed Mr. Ailes to head the new cable news network, my relationship with President Bill Clinton became public. Mr. Ailes, a former Republican political operative, took the story of the affair and the trial that followed and made certain his anchors hammered it ceaselessly, 24 hours a day.
It worked like magic: The story hooked viewers and made them Fox loyalists. For the past 15 years, Fox News has been the No. 1 news station; last year the network made $2.3 billion.
Some experts have noted that viewers found Fox for the first time because of the crisis. John Moody, a Fox executive editor, reflected on that period: “The Lewinsky saga put us on the news map.” As he put it in another interview: “Monica was a news channel’s dream come true.”

That wasn’t a relationship. She’s still delusional. She should be blaming the Clinton criminals, not Roger Ailes or anybody else.
Good thing you hung on to “the dress”.
Otherwise—you’d be stuck in some booby hatch under a ton of Haldol. (IF still Alive, that is.)

Monica, It wasn’t Roger Ailes that saved the blue dress for evidence. You did. You did because you wanted attention. You got it so shut up.

Harlot is as harlot does.

Is she still doing Jenny Craig?
Somebody needs to ask her if it was fair to the other volunteers that she got the paying job?
The next question should be should women have to do what she did to obtain a job?

>> “If it weren’t for Fox News, she would probably be found lying in fort Marcy Park, unmentioned by the media.” <<
Precisely.
Bringing out the trash to the curb on Garbage Day!
No idea whom she dates nowadays
.
Bill Clinton should have gone to jail for that.
.
But now that she's reached middle age and is blaming Ailes and Fox, no more pity from me.
Roger Ailes didn’t make you a little fat scuzzy whore...

Monica, you have put who and what you are on a world stage.
Ailes had nothing to do with it.
I remember my (then) toddler daughter talking about you and how you were a bad girl because you “pee-peed on the floor.”
Thank you for that, Monica.

That’s all we need. To be lectured to by a slutty fat chick.
What year is she talking about?
Fox News launch, on October 7, 1996.
At launch, only 10 million households were able to watch Fox News, with none in the major media markets of New York City and Los Angeles...
CNN was much more prominent at the the time as were the entrenched ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS and 1000’s of other newspapers around at the time.
You didn’t put Fox into the public realm. 911 did that, long after your sordid affair.
Drugs you have been taking to deal with your kneepad injuries and psychic wounds have seriously injured you further.
Your mom and dad should sue your doctors for malpractice and you should be more honest with yourself in therapy.
You might even start with step #4 of Alcoholics Anonymous and take serious inventory of yourself with sincere honesty.
But....whatever.....whore....
None of it would have happened if Monica had kept her legs shut and her mouth closed.
Not only did she go after a married man, but the one to whom he was married to is responsible for quite a death list. She is very lucky to still be alive.
And even that is not a given.
Everyone knows what a "Lewinsky" is these days, you will live in infamy.
