ACTION ALERT: O'Reilly Smears L.A. Times on Sex Abuse Story

[stewert]

In his continuing criticism of the Los Angeles Times for printing stories about Arnold Schwarzenegger's
alleged record of groping and sexual assault, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly (10/8/03) pointed to what he
saw as a double standard: "Do you think the L.A. Times sent a squad of reporters to Arkansas to
investigate Bill Clinton's problems with women? No, it did not."

In fact, the L.A. Times did investigate Clinton sex stories in Arkansas. A 4,000-word piece appeared on
the paper's front page on December 21, 1993, running under the headline "Troopers Say Clinton Sought
Silence on Personal Affairs." This article was one of the first to report on the scandal known as
"Troopergate," which led to Paula Jones' lawsuit against Clinton and thus indirectly to Clinton's
impeachment.

Later on in the same broadcast, O'Reilly charged that the L.A. Times "didn't send a squad of reporters to
go down there and interview Kathleen Willey and all of the other people. They did not do it." The paper
could not have interviewed Willey "down there"; she was a White House volunteer who accused Clinton
of sexual misconduct at the White House. She came forward to tell her story in 1998, and her case had
nothing to do with Arkansas. Her allegations were featured in a front-page L.A. Times story on March
16, 1998.
