Question

In 1998 a sexual scandal involving president Bill Clinton broke. He was accused of having an affair with an young intern known as Monica Lewinsky. The affair and the denial of Clinton resulted in his impeachment by the house of Representatives resulting in a huge media circus.

Answer 1

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Monica Lewinsky, born in San Francisco in 1973 was a Whitehouse intern in 1995. She was in her 20s and was said to have entered into a sexual relationship with Bill Clinton, the 42nd president of the United States of America. During the two-year period of their love affairs, the young woman confided in her colleague Linda Tripp that she was having a sexual relationship with the sitting president.

In 1998, the issue escalated and became a full-blown scandal that led to the impeachment of the president by the House of Representative for perjury and obstruction of justice but he was later acquitted by the senate.
