× Media is the most important medium to report information, especially in reporting big issue such as sexual scandal which involves the former United States President, Bill Clinton, with his aide, Monica Lewinsky. Theoretically, media will pay attention and position man to be better than woman. The way media position woman less than man is also influenced by the woman stereotype which says that woman is voiceless and powerless in sexual matter. Then, this research’s aim was to know the media tendency in positioning Monica Lewinsky dealing with her sexual scandal with Bill Clinton narrated in www.nytimes.com and www.washingtonpost.com in 1998. This research was a kind of qualitative research in which it was focused on the quality of the data from the sources of data which were taken from news websites www.nytimes.com and www.washingtonpost.com on the length of time from January 1998 until December 1999. Formerly, the data were collected by browsing many kinds of articles from both the news websites, and then examined it by using feminist approach, media approach, and semiotic approach. In this analysis section, the data were classified into three periods and analyzed by using relevant theories. Lastly, the analysis was done as detail as possible to answer the problem statement. The classification of the analysis into three periods such as pre-confession period, confession period, and post-confession period of Lewinsky toward her relationship with Clinton prove that there are two different tendencies of media in positioning Lewinsky. Further, in the pre-confession of Lewinsky, media tend to describe her differently; The New York Times (NY Times) positions her as a good woman while The Washington Post (Washington Post) positions her as a bad woman. But then this different tendencies both from NY Times and Washington Post changes into positive in the confession period when she confessed the truth of her scandal publicly. These positive tendencies of both media to Lewinsky also occur in the post-confession period of Lewinsky. That is what has been called as subjectivity and objectivity in media.
