DRUDGE REPORT By Matt Drudge Thu Aug 06 1998 20:42:07 ET REPORT: BILL RICHARDSON CAUGHT IN LEWINSKY LIE! Exclusive The WASHINGTON TIMES is set to release a blockbuster report that is bound to turn official Washington upside down and inside out. U.N. Ambassador Bill Richardson, contrary to what he told Congress last month in sworn testimony, did not have a job opening on his staff when he offered to hire Monica Lewinsky in October, according to sources and documents obtained by the WASHINGTON TIMES. Reporter Bill Sammon breaks hard with the exclusive, set to appear in Friday editions. Richardson, who was recently confirmed as President Clinton's new Energy Secretary, "panicked when the scandal broke in January and scrambled to find a slot he could claim had existed long before he interviewed Lewinsky." Sammon reveals: "Despite Mr. Richardson's repeated sworn assertions, he did not create the position until after Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr served him with a subpoena demanding all documents related to the job offer." Starr is trying to determine whether the offer was aimed at distancing Lewinsky and keeping her quiet about her relationship with Clinton. The TIMES quotes sources at the United Nations, State Department and Capitol Hill in the exhaustive report.

Lewinsky also testified, according to the TIMES, that she and the president "had talked about ways to conceal their relationship... [but] he never directly told her to lie under oath in the Paula Jones case." Lewinsky was asked a series of questions about the dirty dress Thursday and prosecutors have left open the possibility of recalling her before the grand jury, perhaps after the president testifies, says the paper.
