The rumor persisted in the shadowlands of the Internet, even after a sworn denial by Juanita Broaddrick, the woman involved. Mrs. Broaddrick reversed herself last spring, during questioning by investigators for the independent counsel, Kenneth W. Starr. Last month, during the impeachment process, she decided to make the assault charges public in an interview with NBC News. Then she chafed because the interview was not broadcast.
Now, Mrs. Broaddrick has found a different avenue to tell her story, giving several news organizations, including The New York Times, an account of an encounter with Clinton in an Arkansas hotel room. The interviews represent the first time she has spoken openly about an accusation first made public last March. In the interview, she describes a scene in which Clinton invited himself to her room and then attacked her.
President Clinton's personal lawyer, David A. Kendall, has strenuously denied the charge. "Any allegation that the President assaulted Mrs. Broaddrick more than 20 years ago is absolutely false," he said in a statement released on Friday in response to reporters' inquiries. "Beyond that, we're not going to comment." The White House declined further comment Tuesday.

How different things are when you're on the Left Wing Media's hit list!
. . .saw this 'woman' on TV and thought immediately how pathetic this was; and that she surely was not telling the truth; and what she was saying, was not for the right reasons.
