the lying came about as a result of the relationship. In any case, the person to answer for the relationship is Bill ( and Monica- she was an "adult" and she admits she "pursued" him, and she's talked extensively about the affair). But he had the greater responsibility then, and now, to answer for his actions. The affair itself was unethical because a President should not break boundaries in the work place and indulge in sex with an intern. what is the suitable punishment now for this? After impeachment?

Media heads should spend more time contemplating how they abused Monica and helped make her a national punchline.
