(THE HILL) -- Former White House intern Monica Lewinsky penned an op-ed Monday calling Fox News’s coverage of her relationship with former President Bill Clinton a “nightmare.”
“My character, my looks and my life were picked apart mercilessly,” she wrote Monday in a New York Times piece headlined "Roger Ailes’s Dream Was My Nightmare."
“Truth and fiction mixed at random in the service of higher ratings. On Fox, it seemed, no rumor was too unsubstantiated, no innuendo too vile and no accusation too abhorrent," the former White House intern wrote.
“The comments on television and online were excruciating. I ceased being a three-dimensional person. Instead, I became a whore, a bimbo, a slut and worse.”
