Lewinsky Attorney Says His 'Media Blitz' Over

WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, Feb. 1) -- The
attorney for former White House intern Monica
Lewinsky made the rounds of five television talk
shows on Sunday but said this would be the last
time for the foreseeable future.

"This is the end of my media blitz," Bill
Ginsburg said upon arriving for a CNN
interview. "This is it, folks," he told "Fox News
Sunday." "This thing has gotten out of hand. It's
enough."

Ginsburg told CNN he still hopes for immunity for his client.

"Immunity would be very good," Ginsburg told CNN's "Late Edition," "because
then she could tell her story in a cathartic way completely and without any fear
or anxiety that she was going to be jailed or charged or put into jeopardy."

Ginsburg said he is not in "intense
negotiations" with independent counsel Ken
Starr's office, which is investigating
allegations that President Clinton had a sexual
relationship with Lewinsky and then urged
her to lie about it. Clinton has strongly
denied both allegations.

"I'm waiting for them to call and make me an
offer, if indeed they ever make one,"
Ginsburg said.

Ginsburg said he will travel with Lewinsky
this week to Los Angeles, where Lewinsky
will visit with her father.

On CBS' "Face The Nation," Ginsburg said his client would be willing to submit
to a polygraph test if she's granted immunity.

"If she is given full immunity ... in order to verify that she's telling the truth,
which I'm sure she is, I would be happy to submit her to a polygraph
examination," he said. "Lie detector's not a good word because they can't detect
lies."

On NBC's "Meet the Press," Ginsburg also said
he hoped the media coverage surrounding the
allegations would subside.

"It will go away, it'll pass. The president will
remain in office. He'll do a good job. We'll all
hopefully have a sound economy, keep our jobs,
and I think everybody's going to be fine,"
Ginsburg said.

But Ginsburg admitted on "Fox News Sunday"
that he doesn't know all the details behind the
allegations.

"No, I don't know the whole truth," Ginsburg said.

Hi BAP,
I do believe it is yourself in denial. I don't suppose you would be
willing to share a quote or an url wih us to support that. Of course not, because it does not exist, and you can say look it up yourself. I did and can not find that quote anywhere(Ginsberg admitting of a sexual affair of Lewinsky and Clinton on behalf of Monica), again because, you can't find what doesn't exist! The only quote I can find is:
"She stands by her affidavit," Ginsburg said on CNN"s "Late Edition." When asked if she could change her story yet again, he repeated, "She stands by her affidavit." Quoted from the associated Press February 2/98.
These only are my views based on verifiable information. Seems to me you have passed judgement and now are fabricating/looking for something to support that view. So feel free to contribute/respond civily or shluf this off and give us another reason to feel you have rushed to judgement! I would be dissappointed to find the allegations have merit, however facts are facts, and I'll do MY best to own up to them if that happens, hopefully, we all can,(can you?) when things are PROVED one way or another.

Respectfully

Frank

PS. I'll refrain from retorting to your sarcasim, as I leaned, if you fight fire with fire, you just get a bigger fire.

Her own attorney has stated publicly that she is willing to admit to the sexual relationship with Clinton for complete immunity.

What Ginsburg has actually said is that she needs the "catharsis" of telling her story, whatever it may be. (Oh, dear, now THAT TOO?)

He's also claimed to have no actual knowledge of an affair between the two.
