Broadcast journalist Ted Koppel shares his opinions on what was most unsettling to him about the Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky scandal that emerged in 1998. In this video, Koppel says that Clinton having an affair with other women and being unfaithful to his wife was not what bothered him– what bothered him was that Paula Jones, who filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Clinton in 1994, did not get a fair hearing due to the former president lying under oath during his deposition. He then goes on to share an anecdote about a note he received from Clinton after he had gone on record with the New York Times Magazine saying Clinton was the toughest person to interview because he always felt that “he was two or three questions ahead” of him.
