NEW YORK TIMES BLOCKBUSTER: VERNON JORDAN TOLD CLINTON

Credit Drudge Report

Vernon Jordan kept the president personally informed of his efforts to find a job and a lawyer for Monica Lewinsky in the days after Lewinsky became a potentially damaging witness in the sexual misconduct case against Clinton, the NEW YORK TIMES reports in Saturday editions. A pre-release of the story, obtained Friday evening by the DRUDGE REPORT, is written by TIMES stars Jeff Gerth and John Broder. The duo builds the story based on information provided by "a lawyer who knows Jordan's version of events."

"Jordan has told friends and associates that he remains loyal to the president, but that loyalty may be undergoing its severest test," reports the TIMES.

At issue is how much Jordan knew about the president's relationship with Lewinsky. It's an account that will leave the White House with little room for wiggle.

The paper reveals: "Even though Jordan had not been told Lewinsky had been called as a witness [in the Paula Jones case], he had been aware that the president considered his help important."

"Jordan has complained to associates that neither the president nor his lawyers told him that Lewinsky had been named a potential witness in the [Paula] Jones lawsuit... [On Dec. 22] Jordan went to the White House to personally ask the president whether he had been involved in a sexual relationship with the former intern. Jordan remembers being told by the President: 'Never, no way.'"

"Armed with the President's denial, Jordan pushed ahead with efforts to find Lewinsky a job, including numerous meetings with her and phone calls to contacts in the business world."

Jordan's account presents a problem for Clinton because it would mean that Clinton was aware of the aid given to Lewinsky.
