How can you use “troopergate” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Brock, in case you've forgotten, is that young, gay, conservative investigative sex journalist who specializes in the reverse beatification of liberal saints in the gay-baiting American Spectator . After making his name with a best seller arguing that Anita Hill had mixed up Clarence Thomas with someone else, Brock became even more notorious by breaking, in the pages of the Spectator , the lurid tale that came to be known as "Troopergate."
As he indicates, he thinks the media focused on Whitewater and Travelgate in 1994 as higher-minded alternatives to Troopergate.
It told the riveting story of how I--"perhaps the only self-proclaimed conservative journalist devoted to digging up stories rather than writing editorials," author of a best-selling attack on Anita Hill, and "the star reporter at the [ American ] Spectator"-- came to break the Troopergate story, and how Troopergate begat Paula Jones, and how Paula Jones begat Monica Lewinsky.
In his well-hyped Esquire "apology"--the most recent one, not last year's I-was-a-hatchet-man number in which he defended his Troopergate reporting--Brock merely says he's had "occassional pangs of doubt" about the trooper story.
The handling of the Troopergate charges is illustrative of the media's discomfort with the whole subject.
