-Caveat Lector- Newsmax-Inside Cover Wednesday May 16, 2001; 5:59 p.m. EDT Donaldson Disagrees with Rather on Clinton ABC News reporter Sam Donaldson sounded like he didn't want to criticize his CBS News colleague Dan Rather Wednesday afternoon, but in the end he just couldn't second Rather's testimonial to Bill Clinton's honesty. Rather told Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly the night before that he thinks Clinton "is an honest man," despite the impeached ex-president's well-known record of duplicity in the Monica Lewinsky case. O'Reilly's FNC colleague Sean Hannity asked Donaldson Wednesday if he agreed with Rather during an interview on his WABC radio show: HANNITY: (Rather) was asked the question of whether Bill Clinton is an honest man -- and he said "Yes." How would you answer that question? DONALDSON: Well, I think the record speaks for itself. I mean, he gave dishonest answers, as he has now admitted, when he was under oath in the Paula Jones deposition. Now, the question of perjury is one of legal definition but, clearly, he was not honest. I mean, when asked whether he'd ever been alone with Monica Lewinsky, he said "No, not that I recall." When asked if he ever gave her any gifts and he said "No." You think that's honest? On the subject of Clinton's alleged rape of Juanita Broaddrick, Donaldson cut his CBS colleague some slack. HANNITY: Dan Rather also said last night -- he says he doesn't know much about Juanita Broaddrick. Is that possible, Sam? DONALDSON: I think it's possible. I mean, her name is not a household word. HANNITY: How could he not know about Juanita Broaddrick, Sam? That's impossible. This is the head of CBS News, the face of CBS News. DONALDSON: Well, again, I don't think Juanita Broaddrick is a household word. Donaldson noted that in March 1999 he asked Clinton directly whether Broaddrick's charges were true. He is the only reporter to broach the topic with Clinton before or since. Rather than deny the rape charge, Clinton referred the question to his lawyer. "Maybe Dan missed (that exchange). That's OK." Donaldson said. ================================================================= Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends ================================================================= <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
