Vintage CNN - Bill Clinton - Stained Dress Scandal - Larry King Live - Aug 17 1998

Aug. 17 1998 - Bill Clinton testified to the grand jury
for more than four hours via closed circuit television
and that evening, he spoke to the nation in a televised
address, admitting for the first time that he had a
"relationship" with Monica Lewinsky:

“Indeed, I did have a relationship with Miss Lewinsky
that was not appropriate. In fact, it was wrong. It
constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal
failure on my part for which I am solely and completely
responsible,” he says.

He admits to “inappropriate intimate contact” but
also says that he had given accurate evidence in
January, arguing that, “It depends on what the
meaning of the word ‘is’ is.”

I ripped this segment from an old VHS tape that I
recorded from the live cable TV broadcast 24yrs ago.
