Speaking to Breitbart News, the victims of Bill Clinton\u2019s alleged sexual assaults \u00a0\u2014 Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey, and Paula Jones \u2013 blasted the news media for\u00a0purportedly\u00a0dismissing their own accusations while hailing the recent sexual harassment charges against Bill O\u2019Reilly that led to the former television host\u2019s dismissal from Fox News last week.<\/strong><\/h2>\nAll three women made clear they were not defending O\u2019Reilly, but criticizing what they described as a news media double standard when it came to the treatment of their own serious charges against Clinton.<\/p>\n
Juanita Broaddrick, who famously accused Clinton of raping her twice in a hotel room in 1978, stated:<\/p>\n
I have no idea whether the accusations against Bill O\u2019Reilly are true or not but I would like to ask, \u201cWhere in the world were all these people when Bill Clinton\u2019s victims came forward with more serious accusations? \u00a0Why is Bill Clinton given a pass over the other Bills?\u201d \u00a0I would truly like to know because I will never understand it.<\/p>\n
In an emotionally charged video interview<\/a> with this reporter last October, Broaddrick recounted what she described as the life-changing experience of the alleged rape.<\/p>\nWilley and Jones both accused Clinton of sexual assault, with Willey saying that she suffered acts of intimidation in what she has described as a campaign to silence her.<\/p>\n
Contrasting the news media coverage of the allegations against O\u2019Reilly with the manner in which some in the media and politics dismissed the charges against \u201cpredator and \u201cpervert\u201d Clinton, Willey told Breitbart News:<\/p>\n
Though I should not be surprised, I am still astounded by the hypocrisy of the members\u00a0of the Democratic Party and media. While the revelations of the many scandals\u00a0of\u00a0Bill Clinton\u2019s administration are stunning\u00a0to this day, the left continues to\u00a0ignore his many, many crimes such as rape, sexual harassment, and lying under oath. They have swept his transgressions and crimes under the rug for many years, only to refer to him as a \u201crandy boy.\u201d\u00a0There\u2019s nothing \u201crandy\u201d about him. He is a predator and a pervert.<\/p>\n
The charges against Bill O\u2019Reilly are serious, but where has he been heard regarding\u00a0these accusations? He has been\u00a0judged, tried, and convicted by the Murdoch\u00a0team. We will never know if these accusations are true or false. The least the powers that be at Fox could have done was\u00a0to give him a forum on which\u00a0to respond and say good-bye to his many fans. He helped build Fox News from the ground up. In the meantime, the MSM and the liberals continue to\u00a0overlook Bill and Hillary\u2019s ongoing lies and cover-ups.<\/p>\n
Jones criticized\u00a0The View<\/em> as being \u201chypocritical\u2019 for featuring a friendly interview<\/a> with O\u2019Reilly accuser and former Fox clerical worker Perquita Burgess last week while some hosts on the same show dismissed the accusations from Jones, Willey, and Broaddrick.<\/p>\nIn November, The View<\/em> co-host Joy Behar apologized<\/a> on air after seemingly referring to Clinton\u2019s sexual assault accusers as \u201ctramps.\u201d<\/p>\nStated Jones of the O\u2019Reilly coverage:<\/p>\n
I\u2019m disgusted once again about how hypocritical the liberal media can be.\u00a0 Those insane women on The View<\/em> have the nerve to actually show their feelings on this issue and not see the same resemblance only worse about their man, Bill Clinton! I can\u2019t say that any of this is true with Bill O\u2019Reilly and none of them can say it either!<\/p>\nI\u2019ve not heard that Bill O\u2019Reilly ever raped a lady or showed his tiny peeper to a lady either, like Bill Clinton has. Yet they want to crucify Bill O\u2019Reilly, and think that Bill Clinton has actually paid the consequences.<\/p>\n
Clinton was only impeached and kept his job\u2026 He was rallied around by the whole media and liberal Hollywood! Bill O\u2019Reilly has been fired from his job and is being railroaded for much less than what Bill Clinton has ever done!<\/p>\n
Jones added that \u201cthe liberals take these women who make these claims seriously, yet they called me a bimbo, trailer park trash, and the list goes on and on? Bill Clinton was getting his tiny wiener sucked under the Oval Office desk, where was the outrage to that? As long as it\u2019s a liberal, unethical, baby killer who does all this then it\u2019s perfectly okay, but if it\u2019s a conservative against their evil issues then they crucify them until they are gone. Pathetic!\u201d<\/p>\n
O\u2019Reilly was dismissed from Fox News last week after the New York Times<\/em> reported on numerous sexual harassment allegations and private settlements<\/a> over the years. An internal Fox News investigation reportedly found new harassment claims against the highly-rated host. O\u2019Reilly was ousted nine months after Roger Ailes, founder and former Chairman and CEO of Fox News, resigned in the face of allegations that he sexually harassed female employees and media colleagues.<\/p>\nFortune<\/em>\u00a0magazine featured<\/a> a piece on O\u2019Reilly\u2019s downfall titled, \u201cWhy Bill O\u2019Reilly Got What He Deserved.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cBill O\u2019Reilly is vile. His departure from Fox is long overdue,\u201d opined<\/a> Moustafa Bayoumi writing in the Guardian<\/em> newspaper.<\/p>\nVariety<\/em> published a piece<\/a> featuring celebrities celebrating O\u2019Reilly\u2019s departure from Fox News.<\/p>\nThe news media mistreatment of Clinton\u2019s sexual assault accusers, meanwhile, was typified during the 2016 presidential election by NBC News Anchor Andrea Mitchell baselessly calling Broaddrick \u201cdiscredited\u201d during a segment that aired May 19 on the highly-rated Today Show<\/em>.<\/p>\nFollowing a letter from Broaddrick\u2019s attorney demanding a retraction, NBC deleted<\/a> the \u201cdiscredited\u201d reference from the Internet version of Mitchell\u2019s report.<\/p>\nIn another case<\/a>, The View<\/em> co-host Joy Behar apologized on air after seemingly referring to Clinton\u2019s sexual assault accusers as \u201ctramps.\u201d<\/p>\nIn the case of NBC, neither Mitchell nor the network provided any documentation or evidence to back up the \u201cdiscredited\u201d claim. As critics <\/span>pointed<\/u><\/span><\/a> out in response to Mitchell\u2019s claim, Broaddrick\u2019s accusation has not been discredited.<\/span><\/p>\nNBC itself vetted Broaddrick\u2019s story when she originally broke her silence by <\/span>speaking<\/u><\/span><\/a> to the network\u2019s show Dateline<\/em> in 1999.<\/span><\/p>\nThe network also <\/span>caught up <\/u><\/span><\/a>with Norma Rodgers, Broaddrick\u2019s friend and employee, who confirmed Broaddrick\u2019s story of how Norma found Broaddrick in her hotel room in the immediate aftermath of the incident with a badly swollen lip and mouth and that Broaddrick\u2019s pantyhose had been ripped off. Broaddrick had stated that Clinton bit her on the lip during the alleged rape, which she said transpired in 1978 at her room in a Little Rock hotel.<\/span><\/p>\nNBC\u2019s Lisa Myers, who conducted the 1999 interview with Broaddrick for the network, <\/span>stated<\/u><\/span><\/a> in a 2014 interview that \u201c[N]othing has come up since that story was reported that in any way undercuts what Juanita Broaddrick said.\u201d Myers has since retired from the network.<\/span><\/p>\nNBC\u2019s treatment of Broaddrick is an important case study when it comes to the news media\u2019s coverage of Clinton sex accusers during Bill Clinton\u2019s tenure in office and after.<\/span><\/p>\nAfter filming the 1999 interview, NBC waited 35 days until finally airing the exclusive.
