CBS News is refusing a White House request to release a transcript or full tape of a 45-minute interview with presidential lawyer Robert Bennett, who claims it was edited to make him look bad. Bennett's interview responded to Kathleen Willey's charges on 60 Minutes that Clinton had made unwanted sexual advances. The White House said at least a dozen reporters had requested a full transcript. CBS said honoring such a request would be tantamount to releasing a reporter's notes.
