Imagine that you are Monica Lewinsky. Five weeks have gone by since your life was torn to pieces, and you and your mother are still holed up in her Watergate duplex, with a permanent TV stakeout on the street below. Your lawyer, William Ginsburg, won't let you leave except for the occasional doctor's visit or maximum-security dinner out, and he won't let you talk on the phone. It's jail! And so you pace the curved, windowless corridors, work out in the gym and page Ginsburg a couple of times a day; an old family friend...
...their graphic detail. Lewis reportedly screamed and suffered an anxiety attack--to the point where a nurse and a wheelchair were brought to her side. In the end, Lewis didn't require either.

"It was intended to be a clear signal to others, including Monica, that he's going to be rough."

However, it seems the country?s most famous medical malpractice attorney has his eyes on the kind of legal defense fund that President Clinton has established to fight his various litigious campaigns. Perhaps aid will be forthcoming from a grateful Vernon Jordan, who received a glowing testimonial from Ginsburg: ?Mr. Jordan was very kind, very gracious and arranged some interviews with prominent companies,? said Monica?s attorney...
Also on Jan. 30, Ginsburg appeared on ABC's 20/20. Asked by Barbara Walters whether Clinton ever gave Lewinsky a dress, Ginsburg responded, "Unless you consider a long T shirt a dress, the answer is no." Last Friday the New York Times reported that Betty Currie, Clinton's personal secretary, had turned over to investigators items she had retrieved from Lewinsky, including a dress. The Times did not say whether it was a stained dress, a gift dress, both, or neither...
