On Monday, September 21, the House Judiciary Committee released President Bill Clinton's videotaped testimony in the Monica Lewinsky affair, along with an estimated 2,800 pages of supporting documents from Independent Counsel Ken Starr's sex-and-perjury investigation of the president.
A message to CNN viewers:
CNN is presenting this testimony in its entirety because of the gravity of the crisis involving the presidency -- and because, through its actions, the Congress is asking you, the public, to judge this material for yourselves.
It is our understanding that some of this testimony is sexually explicit and may be inappropriate for children and offensive to some viewers. Viewer discretion is advised.
Given the constitutional process that is under way, we feel it is our journalistic responsibility to bring this material to you. We also feel it is our responsibility to caution you about its contents.
