CNN's Brooke Baldwin and various pundits debate the nature of the Monica Lewinsky scandal, with some characterizing it as a consensual affair rather than an abuse of power. The discussion touches on the $850,000 settlement paid to Paula Jones, which a commentator erroneously refers to as "payola."

CBS News is accused of running a "hit piece" that uses the sexual assault scandal at Baylor University to discredit Kenneth Starr and, by extension, remind viewers of Bill Clinton's past scandals. The report links Starr's current troubles as President of Baylor to his 1990s investigation of the Monica Lewinsky affair.
