Daily Beast: Will Today’s Women Believe Bill Clinton’s Rape Accusers?

By Olivia Nuzzi, May 23, 2016, Daily Beast

Paula Jones and others who accused Bill Clinton of assault were dismissed and derided in the ’90s. Now they’re back on national television—in a far more survivor-friendly environment.

It’s not just chokers, flatforms, and PC campus revolt. The ’90s revival has made its way to the presidential election, too.

With Hillary Clinton likely to be the Democratic nominee, the women who long ago—in a far less survivor-friendly environment than 2016—accused Bill Clinton of rape and sexual misconduct are being trotted out by the conservative media once again.

They may find a broader audience, however, among today’s young women, who take a believe first, vet later approach to rape allegations.
